A Chance to Change Lives
With $50,000, we can make a significant contribution to a much-needed school for 400 children living in extreme poverty in Cambodia. In this impoverished region, children are often pushed into labour from as young as 9 years old due to the dire lack of local opportunities. Many are forced to leave their homes and travel to Thailand to work illegally, a situation that not only robs them of their childhood but also traps their families in a relentless cycle of poverty.
These children deserve a chance for a better future.
By helping to fund this school, you’re providing them with a lifeline—an education that can offer hope, stability and the chance to break free from the cycle of hardship that has defined their lives. Your support can transform their future and offer them the opportunity to rise above the circumstances they were born into.
