SSF was created to improve the quality of life for families living in extreme destitution in Cambodia. SSF aims to develop educational support programs for children who run a high risk for being trafficked. SSF helps these children by protecting them from all forms of violence, exploitation and abuse including: commercial sexual exploitation, trafficking, child labor and child marriage. Our team The Sao Sary Foundation (SSF) provides a proactive approach to helping children and families solve their economic problems, which in turn, helps eliminate the occurrence of child trafficking. SSF not only houses orphans and at-risk children, but we also work with impoverished families throughout the community. We support families with initial start-up capital to begin entrepreneurial efforts in projects like grocery selling and vegetable gardening.
By creating economic independence throughout the community, SSF believes that families will no longer be forced to pay back loans with their children. Additionally, SSF provides full funding for educational costs of the children we support. Currently we support over 50 at-risk children. We provide food, clothing, and shelter for these children, along with vocational skills training. Children living at the SSF house have requisite study hours and must contribute to daily household duties in exchange for participating with SSF.
