On Sunday afternoon we had the pleasure of visiting a village just north of the Reul Pagoda, north of Puok. This is about a 30 minute drive west of Siem Reap through some idyllic countryside. Along with that tranquil beauty comes family growing just barely what they can eat. That’s why we are here.
We presented health kits to about 12 families so they could use the clean water from the wells and practice good hygiene. In addition, there are several toilets being constructed for the most in need. I was struck by the large number of cows they have being tended very close to their homes. But everything was very tidy and the animals looked extremely healthy!

Elderly lady who will share the toilet with her neighbor who helps care for her. The shack on the left in the background is the previous toilet. It was shockingly bad. |
