A Tuk Tuk for the ultra-poor

We need a tuk tuk for deliveries to our critically poor farmers who earn less than $2 a day. We provide them with a business-based program

Nationwide

We now have 32 ultra-poor families raising commercially bred chickens in purpose-built coops. In the last 35-day chicken raising round every farmer made a healthy profit, averaging US$21.57.

Many of our ultra-poor farmers more than doubled their monthly income for an extra 1–2 hours work a day.

To assist other critically poor people we need your help.

About us

We empower ultra-poor rural Cambodians to run their own successful small-scale poultry enterprise to stabilize and increase their income so they can meet their basic needs. Microfranchisees in our programme receive ongoing support and access to outside markets to achieve profitability. This enables them to work towards a stable, sustainable future and plan beyond day to day survival.

Hi Gerard, hi Hana, its been too long since we shared what we earn with your franchisees. It's not alot, and I wish we could do more, but the least we can do is stretch our month's budget to meet your other kind giver's offer. Having a tight month is a great reminder of keeping things in perspective: its nothing on how hard things must be for your franchisees. You guys do an amazing job, and I feel blessed to be a small part of it. Thankyou so much for reminding us all to share what we are fortunate enough to have :-)
