Cambodia Family Transformation

JJoy-VBC Project ID007a: Chhem, Chhoy, Kai, Chhoch, Koeur, and Sreleak

Sponsored by an Amazing Anonymous JJoy Donor

Construction: April 2024

In April 2024, JJoy Foundation initiated a project with our partner Volunteer Building Cambodia to provide a family with a new home, sanitary latrine and solar panel. This project was funded by an amazing JJoy Donor who wishes to remain anonymous.

Let’s meet the family!

Chhem (60 years old) lives with her daughter Chhoy on the outskirts of Siem Reap.  Together they earn about $2.50 per day weaving Khmer baskets.  The two women are the primary caretakers of 4 of Chhem’s grandchildren.  The oldest, Kai (16 years old), stopped attending school after grade 9 and now works as a duck shepherd earning $90 per month.  The 3 younger children are all attending school.

This family faces a variety of challenges and we are thrilled to help them take this next step toward a better life!
