Sponsor a program and/or project

Whether as an individual, or corporation, company, foundation or agency, there are many ways to support SSF's work in the poor, deprived, rural areas of Cambodia. The SSF is intervening in a wide range of sectors through its integrated aid programs in an effort to reverse the dynamics of poverty creation in whole communities.

SSF works to achieve its mission by financially supporting two different programs, our Child Protection and Livelihood programs. Our primary goal is to protect underprivileged children whose families fall into the category of “extremely” poor, whose children are vulnerable to varying forms of violence, exploitation, and abuse. This abuse includes commercial sexual exploitation, human trafficking, child labor, and child marriage.

Through the sponsorship of a program you can have an impact on an entire region, helping it in its search for improved prosperity.

Special Project/Program(s) to Support:

- Child Protection Programme

The goal of this support program is first accomplished by funding at-risk children to stay in school or funding the children to return to school. This funding provides for all of the clothing, books, fees, and other expenses that the child’s family could not otherwise provide. In some cases, children are given a place to live closer to the school, or a method of transportation to get to school, usually a bicycle. This gives the child a safe place to stay as well as food and other basic needs that could not be met by their family...[more]

- Livelihood Programme

SSF works to strengthen the economic stability of families so that they can provide for their children. SSF educates families about different methods they can employ to become financially independent. We then give startup money to families to begin running these entrepreneurial programs. If the program succeeds, SSF conducts weekly follow-ups in order to monitor and mentor the family...[more]

- Street Children Project

SSF intends to establish the Food House Project to help rescue children from the street whose diets come from collecting food scraps from rubbish dumps, garbage piles, and recycling bins for daily consumption. SSF hopes to take in these children, oftentimes orphans and, after proper counseling and rehabilitation, reintegrate these children back into society...[more]
