G’day from Cambodia,
As this year begins to wind down, I’ve been thinking a lot about what has been achieved over the past 10 years and what the next 10 years may hold. Being on the ground here in Cambodia gives one a perspective that is not always easy to communicate….
We have so much in the western world and I am grateful that you are giving to help these impoverished families in rural communities.
Cambodians have suffered so much over these past decades: the bombing during the Vietnam War, the Pol Pot genocide, and the Vietnamese invasion/occupation. Cambodia is still struggling to rebuild from its horrible past, which has left many in extreme poverty.
So thank you for your support. You are making a difference. You have given people HOPE along with clean water and sanitation that has changed their lives. Together we will continue to make a difference. CCWTP is committed long term to helping here.
Here are some highlights of our work this year. You played a significant part in this. We have helped many families with food relief and medical help. We have provided food parcels to the refugees from the Thai / Cambodia border conflict.
We have now installed over 1,200 washroom toilets in the Siem Reap District and over 300 washroom toilets in the Svay Leu District. That has provided over 1,500 families with proper sanitation and a place of privacy, safety and dignity.
As we look ahead, let’s together, continue to make a difference.
My best wishes
Darrel
