More than the amazing temples though Siem Reap and Cambodia is home to a warm and friendly people that smile, despite the troubles of the not so distant past and the challenges faced by nearly every family today. Cambodia has one of the highest infant mortality rates in the region with one in seven children dying before the age of five. Many of these deaths are due to preventable illness and waterborne disease. Malnutrition, lack of education and accidental death (drowning and road accidents) are major issues Cambodia’s children face.

Our goals focus around the basics of providing access to safe water, livelihood opportunities, health, education and environment.
