Last day in the villages

Before the sightseeing part of my trip begins, I spent a final day engaging with CUFA's projects...

This man runs his local credit union of 200 members, as a volunteer from his home. He is holding up the ledger showing all funds under management.
CUFA’s work involves developing and supporting financial cooperatives in communities that previously had little or no access to a financial institution. When a credit union reaches 1,000 members, CUFA funds a permanent home to conduct business, like this one in the Kampong Chhnang Province.



Chicken farming is a common business for Village Entrepreneurs in Cambodia. These are definitely free range!

The fish can't get any fresher than from your backyard farm!

I quickly learned that I do not have the patience or skill for basket weaving!

It was great fun handing out goody bags with a few items to help run their small businesses.
