Sampheas stopped studying in grade nine to look after her younger siblings. She married at 20, but after having two children, had to face reality as a single mother after her husband left the family. Sampheas went on to work as a housekeeper and construction worker, both jobs being physically exhausting, and neither paying well enough to support her children.
Sampheas’ aunty and parents encouraged her to join HHA Cambodia's sewing program, and Sampheas set herself a goal of opening her own sewing shop so she could look after her children whilst earning an income.
Sampheas thrived in class, and was hired to work as a seamstress to make our products. She earns triple what she was previously earning, and has also set up a small sewing shop at her home. Sampheas also studies in the education program at HHA Cambodia, learning English.
We at Human & Hope want to see a world where communities experiencing poverty are empowered and developed through locally driven initiatives.
We raise funds through our handmade products, travel and learning opportunities to support a locally-run community centre (HHA Cambodia) in rural Siem Reap, enabling them to run their own projects with their local expertise.
