Mary’s Compassion 4 Cambodia

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Mary Scholten. I am returning to Siem Reap in October to continue my passion for traveling out to poverty-stricken remote villages in Siem Reap province and Pouk District.

I have an urgent request for help to raise funds for children who cannot afford to attend school, grannies who are raising grandchildren, and families with children in need of food and clean drinking water. Many parents and grandparents go to bed hungry because they only have enough food for their children. Many days the children have to go out into the fields to look for food such as snakes, snails and crabs, or go to school on a hungry stomach.

Can you imagine not being able to turn on your faucet for a glass of cold water? The families living in the remote villages do not have running water in their houses. They have to go out in search of water in a field or pond....dirty, stagnant water is used for cooking and washing.

While I am in Cambodia I will be visiting many villages in need of Water Filters for clean drinking water, Bags of Rice, Sauces and School Supplies for the children who cannot afford to go to school. I will also be visiting some of the elderly I have met in the past that urgently need assistance as they do not receive social security or pensions.

Water Filter - holds 4 gallons of clean filtered water and lasts up to 10 years. Cost $25
Bag of Rice - 50 kg (100 lbs). Cost $30
Soy Sauce & Fish Sauce - 6 bottles for each pkg Cost $3.50 each
School Uniform - Cost $15
School Supplies - Tablet with paper, pens, pencils, eraser, ruler, colored pencils, pencil sharpener and backpack. Cost $25

100% of your donation goes directly to the people of Cambodia. Every little bit helps♥️

Will you please share this with your friends? I would appreciate it. Sharing is caring!

I am so grateful for your help.
