Name: Nang*
Age: 6 years old
Child ID: C282
Nang’s mother disappeared 5 months ago, and has remains uncontable since. His father owns no land and has to work as a labourer in order to earn money to support the family. However, as his father earns barely enough for food and water, Nang and his brother are both unable to go to school. Since the Covid-19 pandemic happened, Nang’s father lost his job and the family has thus sunk even further into poverty.
They live on borrowed land from the government that has no title deed. It is a land reserved by the government for redevelopment such as to build a road, however since they have been living there are a long time and the government does not have any current plans to develop the land, they have been allowed to continue their stay there. This however puts them at risk of losing their house anytime should the government decide to develop the land in the future.

Name: Bap*
Age: 6 years old
Child ID: C278
“It takes a village” is the perfect expression to use for Bap and her younger sister. Instead of being raised by their parents, the 2 girls were raised by kind neighbours and villagers in the village. Bap’s father appears only when he needs money and then disappears shortly after he’s managed to borrow money, and during his disappearance remains uncontactable. Bap’s mother, who is a farmer, constantly struggles to put food on the table and never has time to look after Bap and her younger sister. Having just given birth 9 months ago, Bap’s mother focuses all her energy on her newborn baby. The 2 girls live in their grandfather’s house, but her grandfather is partially blind and thus unable to provide full care to the girls.
The villagers in the village have reached out to Hope Village as they have heard the success stories of past children who have graduated from Hope Village. They have witnessed these Hope Village alumni go on to lead successful lives after graduating. Filled with concern that the girls will be eventually abandoned by their struggling mother, they have requested for the 2 girls to be enrolled in Hope Village in hopes that they will get 3 regular meals a day, proper care and a chance at going to school.

Name: Dav*
Age: 6 years old
Child ID: C284
Dav and his baby brother was brought up single-handedly by their mother after their father ran away and disappeared. Dav’s mother had been an orphan herself since the age of 7, and grew up in a village orphanage. Upon his father’s disppearance, Dav’s mother tried to seek help from his father’s family, but was rejected by them as they felt that she came from a poor background. Dav’s mother was then offered a place of residence at a school dormitory for teachers, in exchange for her being a cleaner for the dorm. For the past 5 months Dav and his baby brother has been living there with her.
We were alerted to her situation by a Hope Village staff who has been watching her collect rubbish along the road to sell, all while carrying her infant and Dav following quietly beside her. Our staff approached Dav’s mother and had a short interview with her to find out about her situation. After some discussion, we decided to enroll Dav to help lessen her burden as well as help give Dav an opportunity to go to school so that in future he can find a good job and help his mother and brother.

Name: Sop*
Age: 10 years old
Child ID: C252
After the death of her mother, Sop and her siblings were left under their grandfather’s care, while their father went to Phnom Penh to find a job. However, since her father left, he has not returned to visit nor send any money back home. Sop’s grandfather is elderly and thus unable to work, making it difficult for him to support 4 grandchildren. Everyday is a struggle for food, shelter and sending the children to school.
Fearing that he will not be able to provide for his grandchildren, Sop’s grandfather reached out to our staff at Hope Village to enroll his grandchildren in hopes that they can stay in a comfortable home with 3 meals a day and be able to go to school.

Sponsor a Child – Empower Poor Village Kids
What is Hope Village Prey Veng?
We are a children’s home designed specifically for the poor children of Cambodia.
Our staff are alerted to cases in the community where children are abandoned, orphaned or living in terrible conditions. Some poor families reach out to us for help because they are unable to provide the best for their children and wish for them to have a better environment to grow up in and an opportunity at education.
Interviews with the families are conducted to check for eligibility as well as on the condition of the child. The parents / guardians must give their consent in the enrollment of the child to Hope Village.
Hope Village is equipped with a variety of facilities specifically for child development. Computers rooms, fields and sports facilities, classrooms, dormitories, multi-purpose hall and more!
Children are given a chance to grow up in a loving environment, with proper meals and an opportunity at education. The child sponsorship donation pays for all the food, utilities, education, medical bills, maintenance of the home and a host of other expenses incurred by the home. Your sponsored child receives your donation in both direct and tangible benefits.
The children are also exposed to entrepreneurial and learning opportunities such as:
-
- Food stall projects during the school holidays, where they learn how to do business
- Taking care of their own vegetable garden
- Going to the markets to help buy food for meals
The children each have their own personal bank books which will keep track of all they have earned from projects, chores and other ad-hoc activities. The money will be given to them when they graduate Hope Village, to which they can use to help them navigate the world.
