Cambodia Family Transformation
JJoy-VBC Project ID005: Sopheak, Sopha and Rotana
Sponsored by Volunteer Team VBC-240114-TV
Construction: January 2024
In January 2024, JJoy Foundation initiated a project with Volunteer Building Cambodia to provide a family with a new sanitary latrine.
Let’s meet the family!
Sopheak and Sopha live with their young daughter in the Angkor Thom District of Siem Reap Province. Sopheak is a construction worker who earns $7.50 on days when he is able to find work. Mom stays home with the little one!
Although their living conditions are difficult, they are excited for this special project which will improve their health. Congratulations!
6 Month Update: July 2024
In the 6 months since Sopheak and Sopha received their new latrine, amazing changes have taken place! The family’s health and hygiene have noticeably improved and they are experiencing fewer instances of illness.
As a result of these changes in living conditions, the family’s standing in the community has been elevated. They are viewed as role models for adopting better hygiene practices and are known to encourage others to work to improve their hygiene as well.
We couldn’t be happier for this family!
One Year Update: January 2025

Two Year Update: January 2026
