Discover Special Journey in Cambodia
Meet Our Craftspersons
We provide life skills training through professional manufacturing in our factory. After spending time establishing relationships with locals and understanding the needs of vulnerable communities, we built a factory in Siem Reap in 2008.
We have created a series of two-year life skills and literacy training programs so that our producers (we call our beneficiaries ‘producers’ because they are professionals who provide valuable products to others) can still ‘learn through working’. Since our goal is to help vulnerable women to move forward in their lives, we offer a two-year job opportunity in our factory and will assist them in finding a new job afterwards. In this way, we can still maintain sustainability and change the lives of a greater number of underprivileged people.
