Blog: Meet the Family: JJoy-VBC Project ID011

Construction: July 2024

In July 2024, JJoy Foundation initiated a project with our partner Volunteer Building Cambodia to provide a family with a home, a clean water well, a sanitary latrine and a solar panel. This project was funded entirely by donations from JJoy Supporters.

Let’s meet the family!

Thort (59) and his wife Ny (66) live with their three adult children. Thort is chronically ill and does not work.  Ny does what she can, but she also suffers from several ailments.  Sometimes she earns a few dollars working at weddings, but her job is intermittent.  She does need to spend about $18 per month on medications.

Thort and Ny’s children try to help out.  Sothy (30) and Sinuon (22) also work at weddings earning about $120 a month.  Sothan (27) does road construction and can earn $125 per year.

The family is very appreciative of the support they are receiving and are excited to begin the next chapter of their lives!
