Unique Challenges
When faced with a unique challenge for one of our families, Pheakdey comes up with the an idea and 1step rises to the challenge. Hence our latest project. Building a fish farm to create a sustainable income for them without having to separate the family to live in the city.
Just the start but it will happen.
