Phum Thmey
Our support for the village
Transport to school
The public school is located 3 km from the village and to reach it you have to travel along a road busy with cars, motorcycles and especially trucks, therefore very dangerous.
At the beginning of 2020 we bought a motorbike and a trolley and every day we offer all the children of the village the opportunity to reach the school without risking being run over.
This initiative is important for the safety of children and at sex time it is a job opportunity for those who go back and forth from the village to the public school every day.
Recycling
Until we arrived in the village, everyone threw the rubbish on the ground and at sunset they burned it as if there was no tomorrow. In recent years we have done everything to solve this problem and in the end we have succeeded.
Now in Phum Thmey the waste is no longer burned, a company collects the undifferentiated from the positions we have placed in the village, our children collect the plastic door to door, and the children recycle it in our laboratory. (Read the Sart Cambodia project)
Houses and bathrooms
Circumstances of poverty and irresponsibility on the part of their parents force many children to live in inhumane conditions, inside old houses built with straw and rusted iron.
After a careful study since 2018 with the Little Oasis project we have built many houses improving the conditions of food for many children.
We are always attentive to the problems of the village and every time we have the opportunity to give our contribution we do everything to help the most needy children to live with dignity in a real home. (see all the work we have done with the Little Oasis project)
Public school
The Angkun Day Primary School is located 3 km from our village and is attended by about 600 children, about a hundred Phum hmey and returned from neighboring villages. We have always thought of looking for a form of collaboration and since the beginning of 2021 we have started to make our contribution also for the children of the other villages.
For the moment we have built a playground in the chorus and started a dental hygiene project in collaboration with another association.
In 2022 we will try to create a football academy with and above all to open a plastic recycling workshop also in the Angkun Day school.
Emergencies
Unfortunately, emergencies are always around the corner and even in this case we always try to help those in need.
We often found ourselves having to solve problems with the authorities, family problems and above all health problems (denista, dengue fever, operations following accidents, medicines of all kinds and materials for the prevention of Covid).
Fortunately, even in this case, our contribution has always made a difference. (see Little Oasis project)
