Why it matters

Making a Difference

No one should face deep needs alone. Caring for others is an act of mercy and reflects God’s call to serve all people who struggle.

Through our programs, we provide children, young people, and families in Cambodia with the support they need to overcome hardship. By offering education, care, food security, crisis relief, developmental activities, and guidance, we help our clients grow stronger, healthier, and more confident. Every action we take contributes to transforming lives and creating hope for a brighter future.

Jesus: “For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.” Matthew 25:35–36
