Resilient families make for strong local communities
We know that resilient nuclear families is the best foundation for a sustainable development both within the family and outwardly in the local community. Therefore, we focus first and foremost on school and education as well as provide for self-sufficiency projects, both of which contribute to such a development. We also see basic nutrition and hygiene as important for children and young people to promote their normal development, resiliency and dignity.
We facilitate for strengthened local communities through gatherings and events in local community centers, various sustainability projects that benefit the citizens as well as support for improvements, or new construction of private stilt houses (traditional Cambodian small houses).
We strengthen and work closely with local house churches out in the local communities so that they can convey God's love in word and deed!
Nutrition and Hygiene
We contribute with knowledge, material support and simple sanitary solutions that bring positive effects on the families.
School and Education
We support disadvantaged, poor children and young people with school supplies and after-school activities. Young people who show aptitude and talent are further supported in their education.
Help to Self-Sufficiency
Central to our work with families is the "help to self-sufficiency". Together with the families, we quickly identify their capacities and opportunities for a project that will secure income and a good livelihood for them.
Stilt house
Ensuring that vulnerable families have a place to live is an important task for us. We assist with necessary repairs where needed and construct new stilt houses for those who are in need of adequate housing.
Community centers
We are establishing community centers where residents of all ages can meet for socializing, training, encouragement and community happenings. We make use of both existing infrastructure and design new, efficient centers where needed.
Sustainability projects
Battambang Province is rich in natural resources. The Stilt House works actively with local partners to establish sustainable projects in areas such as infrastructure, agriculture and chicken production. This creates both jobs for our target groups, as well as benefits the entire community.
House churches
We support house churches in their efforts to bring hope into the communities they are
part of.
