Campaign Story
)
This is my humanitarian project for 2023 - Crowdfunding to help this family with the basic necessities :
Water - digging a deep well, lining the well with plastic or cement, water tank
A rainwater storage tank for the dry season
Electricity - installing solar panels, battery, inverter and lights, maybe a refrigerator ?
Toilet - septic tank and toilet, bathroom with shower
Storm protection - strengthening and extra storm shelter
If the project is successful, an electric water pump and
water filter,
a bathroom with shower and an old motorbike or truck so
they can make a living delivering and selling water to other villages. They could even invite guests for Cambodian 'Home Stay' - a nice quiet environment for a writer or coder - no traffic noise (!) and the stars are beautiful at night. Home cooking !
I have decided to help this poor family in the wilds of Cambodia try and escape crushing poverty and make a decent living. They could not have done this by themselves, that is why I am organizing it for them. The only work available locally is farm labouring at $5 a day (!) and that is only in the rainy season when the crops grow.
Total break-even expenditure for the project $250 - paid by William - that includes travel, hotel, food and $100 for the microphone (!) I get zero financial gain for doing the project - just the satisfaction. There will be a 'follow-up' video showing what the contributions have paid for ( after June 1st ) - if successful.
Anything you can spare will be much appreciated - even $5 or $10 - whatever you can afford - every little helps. They will be eternally grateful.
