Along Cambodia’s border regions, tens of thousands of families are living in silent crisis.
In the provinces of Pursat, Pailin, Battambang, Banteay Meanchey, Oddar Meanchey, and Preah Vihear, border communities face extreme hardship caused by poverty, displacement, unstable livelihoods, climate shocks, and lack of access to public services.
Many families have been affected by:
Cross-border migration and displacement
Loss of farmland and income
Climate-related droughts and floods
Rising food prices
Limited access to healthcare and education
Isolation from government and humanitarian services
Entire communities live in temporary shelters, forest edges, or informal settlements near border areas.
For many families, daily survival depends on unstable labor, forest resources, or borrowed food.
Children suffer from malnutrition.
Elders go without medicine.
Pregnant women lack basic care.
Families are forced to choose between food and healthcare.
This campaign exists to respond at humanitarian scale — reaching approximately 40,000 families with urgent, life-saving assistance.
