Breaking Barriers, Building Futures: Your Impact in 2025

By Samantha McLaughlan | Fundraising and Marketing Manager

Dear GlobalGiving Supporters,

Thanks to your generosity, Epic Arts has achieved remarkable milestones this year, transforming lives across Cambodia and beyond.

Historic Firsts

In September, we proudly hosted the inaugural Asia Disability Rights Network Conference in Kampot, bringing together advocates from Nepal, Myanmar and Cambodia. This landmark gathering sparked bold conversations about inclusive education, employment and arts- the first of four annual seminars strengthening disability inclusion across Asia.

Our Epic Arts Dance company made history touring Singapore for two transformative weeks, performing at prestigious venues including the Esplanade and connecting with hundreds of students. As one young audience member wrote: "Your performance was amazing!"

Education That Includes Everyone

We now support 62 children with disabilities across five Integrated Classrooms in Kampot schools, with a sixth opening soon. Our recent Enrolment Campaign brought together 180+ teachers and students, creating visible momentum for inclusive education throughout the province.

At our Annual Meeting, 61 children and youth with disabilities shared their voices on education access, child protection and their rights, ensuring our work truly reflects their needs.

Employment & Advocacy

With 19 staff members with disabilities (including 9 women) among our 56 person team, we're proving inclusive employment works. In a country where only 2% of persons with disabilities are employed, Epic Arts demonstrates what's possible.

Looking Ahead

From climate resilience research to international performances, your support powers innovation and inclusion. Together, we're building a future where every person belongs, contributes and thrives.

With deep gratitude,

The Epic Arts Team
