Trellis Community Engagement

Overview

Trellis Community Engagement is the nonprofit arm of Trellis Academic. We are committed to making world-class academic mentorship and enrichment accessible to under-resourced students across Cambodia and Southeast Asia. Through a self-sustaining model funded by our premium services, we provide high-impact, no-cost programming that helps talented students pursue educational opportunities they might not otherwise access.

Our work is built on a sustainable model that reinvests a portion of Trellis Academic's revenue into community-based programming. This approach allows us to expand opportunity while maintaining the high-quality services our families expect. This allows us to:

  • Deliver consistent, high-quality programs year after year

  • Remain independent from donor-driven cycles

  • Focus on long-term, sustainable educational equity

Who We Serve

We support high-potential students in Cambodia and Southeast Asia who:

  • Come from financially under-resourced backgrounds

  • Demonstrate academic excellence and leadership

  • Aspire to pursue higher education internationally

We partner with schools, NGOs, and local leaders to identify students who will benefit most from our programs.
