Our Projects
Donations to Cambodia Family Support help to fund projects aimed at sustaining families and communities for the long term.
CFS Projects
Every village is different. Some need basic infrastructure like water or sanitation, while others have major social problems, requiring people rather than pumps. CFS is focused on protecting rural communities from the effects of climate change/seasonal variations.
Literacy
In villages where there are no schools or access to schools, we help set up education centres in cooperation with the Department of Education. Children are taught basic literacy and numeracy.
These education centers provide a foundation for children who would otherwise have no access to education. By learning to read, write, and perform basic math, these children have a chance at a better future.

Community Action
We train and work with community leaders and local government officials. We help villagers to form self-help groups (community action groups). This leads to more sustainable development.
By empowering communities to identify and address their own needs, we create sustainable change that continues long after our direct involvement ends. These community action groups become agents of change within their villages.
Support This ProjectIncome Generation
We help families start a small family business so they can support themselves and allow their children to attend school. We give them a small amount of capital to get started. Options include animal raising, fish farming, market garden, bicycle repair shop or a food shop... all on a small scale.
Economic independence is crucial for breaking the cycle of poverty. By helping families establish sustainable sources of income, we enable them to provide for their basic needs and invest in their children's education.

Animal Bank
Animals – mainly cows, but also pigs and goats – are made available to individual families or through village self-help groups. Index animals belong to CFS and are 'loaned'. Villagers keep offspring but must pass along one or more offspring to other villagers.
This sustainable approach creates a multiplier effect, allowing the benefits of a single animal to spread throughout the community. It also builds community bonds as families help each other succeed.
Support This ProjectWater & Sanitation
We help villagers install pit latrines, dig wells and ponds, install simple pumps, provide rainwater jugs and drinking water filters. This leads to improvements in health and well-being.
Access to clean water and proper sanitation is fundamental to health and development. These projects reduce waterborne diseases and improve overall community health, while also saving time previously spent collecting water from distant sources.

Education
CFS works in schools with teachers and students to raise awareness about domestic violence, safe migration (anti-trafficking), mental and physical health, good sanitation and hygiene. We also provide latrines, hand-washing facilities and potable water at schools.
Education goes beyond basic literacy and numeracy. By addressing social issues and providing essential facilities, we create safer, healthier learning environments where children can thrive.
Support This ProjectNetworks
We work with community networks, including local government, to support victims of human trafficking and domestic violence. Most often these are children and women.
By building strong networks of support, we can identify and assist vulnerable individuals before they become victims. These networks also provide crucial support for those who have already experienced trafficking or violence.
