Meet Soeun Sreymeas, a student supported by 🎓 Lotus Outreach Australia's GATE Phnom Penh secondary school project and Lotus Outreach International's 🍚 Rice for Education project.

Soeun Sreymeas, 18, is a Grade 11 student in Phnom Penh. After losing her mother and with her father no longer present, she now lives with her grandmother, brothers, and aunt. Her family survives on a small daily income from selling fried banana cakes and irregular construction work.

At one point, Sreymeas considered leaving school to help support her family.

In 2024, she was selected for a GATE scholarship supported by Lotus Outreach Australia, alongside rice support through Lotus Outreach International’s Rice for Education project. Through this combined support, she receives school supplies, a stipend, and 50 kg of rice each month.

This support has eased the financial pressure on her family and ensured consistent access to food—allowing her to remain in school and focus on her studies.

She now hopes to become a teacher and study at the Royal University of Phnom Penh.

“This support gave me hope. It allowed me to continue my education and dream about my future.”

🧡 We are grateful to hand over the Rice for Education project to Lotus Outreach Australia, so that this life-changing support can continue into the future as our work concludes at the end of this year.

🤍 Thank you for your essential generosity as Lotus Outreach International navigates our final year and ensures this transition. 🙏

Happy Khmer New Year to our friends, students, families, and partners across Cambodia.

This is a time of renewal — a time to honour family, show gratitude to elders, welcome new beginnings, and hope for a year of health, learning, and opportunity.

At Lotus Outreach Australia, we are grateful to be part of the journeys of so many girls and young women as they step into new school years, new challenges, and new possibilities.

May this New Year bring peace, safety, and bright futures to all.

On World Health Day, we are reminded that health is not just about medicine — it’s about access, safety, and the chance to keep learning.

This is Sreykeo. She needed urgent surgery for a growth that was restricting her breathing and sending her to hospital twice a month. To pay for the operation, her mother borrowed $300 using her motorbike as collateral, and another $300 from neighbours and friends.

Without support, this family would have fallen into irreversible debt.

Through her Lotus Outreach Australia scholarship, Sreykeo’s family was able to repay every loan — and focus on her recovery, not financial ruin. Today, she is thriving at school, healthy again, and has even won multiple medals in a mathematics competition.

This is why health support matters.

When girls receive both education and emergency health care, they don’t just survive — they recover, grow, and succeed.

Clean water is something most of us take for granted — but for many Cambodian families, it’s a daily struggle.

Some of our students’ families rely on rainwater tanks, and in the dry season they pay around $11 per week to have water trucked to their homes. That might not seem like a lot — but it often means no money left for eggs, rice, or other essentials. And if they can’t pay, they go without water entirely.

Storing water comes with its own risks, too — mosquito-borne illnesses like dengue, and typhoid in some areas.

On World Water Day, we reflect on how vital safe, reliable water is for health, education, and independence — and why supporting families and communities matters.

Happiness isn’t just a feeling — it’s the result of opportunity, safety, and support.

At Lotus Outreach Australia, we celebrate the Cambodian girls we support: their laughter in classrooms, their curiosity as they learn, and the confidence that grows when they know they are safe, educated, and empowered.

Every scholarship, every lesson, every moment of encouragement contributes to a happier, healthier future. 🌸

A book in hand — a world in mind.

For the girls supported by Lotus Outreach Australia, every page opened is a step toward a brighter future. Education expands horizons, builds confidence, and gives girls the tools to create change in their own communities.

When you become a monthly donor, you help keep that door to the world open — ensuring more girls can stay in school and discover what’s possible.

🌸 Empower her journey — one book, one dream, one month at a time.

On International Women’s Day, we celebrate women whose lives have been transformed by opportunity — and the power of education to truly balance the scales.

Meet Sreypov and Phannet. Both began their journeys with a Lotus Outreach Australia scholarship, at a time when university and professional careers were far beyond reach for girls like them.

Through long-term support and access to education, they were given the chance not just to stay in school — but to choose their futures. Today, they are university graduates and successful young women, building independent lives and contributing to their communities.

This is what balancing the scales looks like.

When girls are given education, protection, and opportunity, they don’t just change their own lives — they change what is possible.

Curiosity and collaboration — two powerful forces that help girls learn, grow, and dream bigger together.

At Lotus Outreach Australia, we believe that when girls support each other, entire communities rise. Education doesn’t just build knowledge — it builds connection, confidence, and the courage to lead.

Become a monthly donor and help us keep that spark of curiosity alive — one classroom, one friendship, one future at a time.

🌸 Together, we make learning possible.
