They were some of the poorest people in the world with the biggest smiles. Cambodia is amazing and I'm going back as soon as possible.

Rescue from the margins
Between the heart of Phnom Penh and the badly polluted Mekong River there are many thousands of people who literally ‘live on the margins’: they exist on a strip of land rife beset with disease and terrible poverty. There are no opportunities for education or work.
Join us as we work with Cambodian Christians at the Fellowship of Hope to offer a better life to some of these people.

New hope for a broken nation
Cambodians are a broken people: between 1976 and 1979 Pol Pot’s Khmer Rouge killed around 2 million Cambodians, or 20% of the population. But his regime’s murderous influence had another influence: families were split up and put in re-education camps. You were taught to trust nobody but the state itself.
Three decades later and the people of Cambodia still live in the shadow of this monstrous message – there is a whole generation that does not know how to bring up a family properly or trust others.
