Join us for the Temple Run 2025, uniting runners worldwide to raise funds for free education, nutritious meals, and healthcare for 300 children in rural Siem Reap, Cambodia. This event promotes community participation and empowers families to break the cycle of poverty through Helping Hands Cambodia's mission-bringing hope, learning, and brighter futures.Participants and donors join forces to help break the cycle of poverty by empowering families through education and wellbeing.
In rural Siem Reap, many children grow up without access to quality education, nutritious meals, or proper healthcare. Families face poverty, limited job opportunities, and a lack of resources to support their children's learning. As a result, many children drop out of school to work or help at home, perpetuating a cycle of poverty.
Through the Temple Run, we aim to raise awareness and funds to ensure that 300 children from low-income families can attend school, receive daily nutritious meals, and access basic healthcare - giving them the opportunity to build a brighter, healthier future. Donations will help cover the costs for 2026, providing access to quality education, nutritious meals, proper healthcare, clean water, and sports training.
We often take education for granted but in Cambodia, where an entire generation of educated people were killed by the Khmer Rouge, basic education is still a luxury. In the space of ten years our villagers have seen improvements in health, educational achievement and career prospects but there is still a long way to go. The continuation of our work will lead to even better health, greater career choice, long term financial stability and a real chance of self sufficiency for more than 500 people.
