Help Displaced Families on the Cambodia Border

Hi my name is Sarah Ouk,

In recent days, escalating tensions along the Cambodia–Thailand border have forced families to flee their homes with little or no warning. Many come from rural areas with limited resources or savings and had no time to prepare.

To make matters worse, it’s currently the wet season—conditions are harsh, and shelter is scarce. Families are sleeping rough, often without dry clothes, clean water, or basic medical supplies.

This GoFundMe aims to provide urgent relief for these vulnerable families, including:

Non-perishable food (rice, noodles, canned goods)

Fresh drinking water

Basic medicines (paracetamol, ibuprofen, antiseptics)

Clothing and bedding

Shelter (tents and tarps)

Donations will go toward purchasing and distributing supplies directly to those in need via local, trusted distribution points.

Our main collection and coordination hub is The Mended Drum, an Australian-owned business in Siem Reap. All funds will be directed through this venue, with full transparency and receipts available for those who request them.

Every contribution—big or small—makes a real difference.

Thank you for your compassion and support.
