In 2012, Michael and Suzanne Pawley started an Australian Not-For-Profit Organisation to raise funds to assist impoverished children in a rural village area, 18km from Siem reap, in the Kingdom of Cambodia. We were awed by the rich culture and history of the country, however, we were equally affected by its people in rural areas who live in devastating poverty. A people who had suffered so terribly at the hands of the Khmer Rouge during the Pol Pot Regime. This regime set the country back 50 years and the effects of this are widespread even today with more than 2 million people having died from starvation, overwork and executions, and those who survived suffer the effects of Post Traumatic Stress which is invariably passed on to their children.

Our charity has no running costs in Australia which allows every cent to get to where it is needed.

OUR OBJECTIVE
Enabling the rural village children of Cambodia an opportunity to break the poverty cycle by improving their living conditions and teaching them to make informed decisions about their future through the power of education.
