The Trailblazer team continues to reduce poverty and save lives through life's most basic need: water.

In the past 3 months at least 1260 more rural villagers have clean water to drink through the distribution of over 180 bio-sand water filters reducing illness, disease and suffering.

Up to 63 more families have access to water with over 20 wells installed improving hygiene and sanitation, as well as providing them the ability to irrigate home gardens for increased nutrition, food security and income generation.

Other project activities the Trailblazer team were involved in include:

  • delivery of flip flops to 200 primary grade students to prevent against injuries and hookworm
  • training sessions in agriculture and horticulture practices
  • assisting and training 9 more farmers in fish farming
  • organizating a group of doctors and dentists to visit villagers and address urgent medical and dental needs
  • inauguration of our 5th primary school building in TaTrav village to serve an additional 480 students
  • assistance in the re-installation of a bio-sand bag that serves up to 1500 families on Tonle Sap Lake

We thank all our donors and volunteers who continue to make progress possible through their gracious gifts and willingness to be part of making an impact in bettering the livelihoods of poor villagers in rural Cambodia.
