 Dear Friends, 

 

We are so proud of what we have done in the last three months. Our projects are thriving and additional support has been provided thanks to this campaign. 

 

We have, so far, provided:

 

202 food emergency packages for families in dire need. These packages contain non perishable foods like rice, oil, canned fish, cooking sauces, but also eggs. 

 

50 families, through home gardening support, received all the tools necessary to start their own self-sustainable gardens, planting vegetable seeds and raising chickens. 

 

Likewise, 106 study material packages were distributed to children in need so they can assist school and have better chances in life. 

 

We could not have done this without you. Thank you!

From the effort of our community outreach officers, 50 families were assessed and selected to be assisted through creating their own home gardens. 

Our officers learned about the families' needs, and after discussion, our team provided 50 families with home gardening materials including garden nets, chicken nets, chickens as vegetable seeds of eggplant, lettuce, chili, cucumber, pumpkin and morning glory.

We truly believe this is the most sustainable way to help feed these families. Not only we are providing them with food, but we are providing them with a garden that can feed them for hopefully years to come. 

 Thank YOU for being part of this impact.

Hello Friends!

 

Thank you for helping us provide Emergency Support to the families that most need it. 

During the month of April, WRC provided 20 food emergency packages. These emergency food packages contain all the essential nutritional items that are commonly found in Cambodian households, such as rice, soy sauce, fish sauce, oil, canned fish and other non perishable foods, powdered milk, and hygiene products. 

In May, we were excited to provide 75 bikes for young girls and women in need of transportation to go to school and/or work. So many women face difficulties and hardships getting to where they need or want to be, and we sincerely hope this helps increase their mobility. 

Some of these women and girls had to walk to work or school for an hour (and back) every day. They are grateful and so are we!

 

In love, gratitude and grace,

WRC.

Dear Friends,

By supporting WRC in 2021, you've helped us reach 193 families in dire need. 

The city of Siem Reap went through a really difficult time, with very strict lockdowns and of course, many businesses going bankrupt leaving people unemployed. 

The families received continued food emergency support during the hit of covid-19 pandemic.

To make the help sustainable, we are helping these families get back on their feet also through other projects, such as Financial Literacy and Empowerment as well as Home gardening. 

We know that with your help, in 2022, we can help them get back on their feet!

With love, 

WRC

Dear Friend,

I am excited to share just a few of the things we have been able to do with support from generous individuals like you.

The year has definitely not been easy for families in Siem Reap, as the Province's economy relies mostly on tourism. 

With your help, WRC provided food emergency packs for 150 families. 

Additionally, we kept providing provided social services, and 30 women joined our Financial Literacy and Business Entrepreneurship workshop sessions, which had the aim to give them tools to properly manage their personal and business finances, such as budgeting and saving, interest and debt management.

We continue to work hard to provide women and girls in Siem Reap with all the necessary tools for empowerment, and hope to continue to have you holding our hand in this journey. 

In love and grace,

Ros.
