CCF's commitment to ending generational poverty is evident in its focus on nurturing future leaders and providing essential community services, including housing, medical clinics, and education. 18 students received international scholarships to study in Australia, the USA, France, Japan, and India; 191 university graduates with full-time employment; And almost 150,000 lives have been impacted by CCF programs in Cambodia.
