We now have a new logo for the Wat Opot Children’s Community. I have been trying to design something on my own for several months but nothing ever seemed to work. I really wanted to impress the American Ambassador when she visited our place for THE BIG EVENT but with only three weeks to prepare, it seemed hopeless. And than, like an answer to Prayer, the Universe sent us Agathe Troussel, a graphic designer from France, and within a few days she accomplished what I had not been able to do. The Khmer letters spell “Sahacom” or Community in English.

T-Shirts were printed with the logo on the front and this quote from Gail’s article in the Kyoto Journal on the back. They drew a lot of attention from the guest and one of the shirts would even have been presented to the Ambassador… had she stayed around long enough to receive it.

We even have our own flag now and it flies right below the flag of the USA.

Thanks Agathe for sharing yourself and your talents with us. We wish you all the best as you continue your travels through South America. Hasta luego!
