Posted on May 17, 2022May 17, 2022 by Ken

Phchum Ben at Wat Khmer Samacki in Richmond, VA and Fundraising. We would like to thank Bong Khan and Bong Pim for their kindness and their hospitality.

We had a great time with my friends and other people at the Temple. The Temple President and his Board Members were very nice to us. Every hour they came to check with us and the vendors near us to see how we were doing. They also told us to get breakfast, drinks, tea or coffee and at lunch time they came to invite us to get lunch. When we were busy, they brought food, drinks ,and desserts for us. I went to the bathroom and, on the way back, I stopped at the food area and there many kinds of food. People were friendly and invited us to come again so they can help buy LFF merchandise. At the Temple they have chairs and Tables for you and your family to sit and eat and they also have umbrellas mounted in the tables. It is a nice place. The temple itself isn’t big like the Maryland Temple but the complex is on a 28 acre plot. This temple was just built about 5 years ago. It’s a beautiful place and is kept up very well. I hope you all can join us at Khmer New Year at Wat Khmer New Year next April.

Erick’s sacrifice in donating $500 to the needy people in Cambodia Sept., 2021

Posted on February 12, 2022May 18, 2022 by Ken

I am very impressed with Erick’s sacrifice in donating $500 to the needy people in Cambodia. $200 of that donation provided food supplies for 10 needy families and $300 will go to help Cambodian students. Erick follows in his father’s footsteps. His beloved father was very kind and sacrificed much to the Cambodian people. He built houses for them, provided tuition to college students, provided school supplies for students, and simply loved Cambodian people. After his father died, while he was still very young, I would take Erick to Cambodia and teach him to do charity work among my people. I would also teach him about how wonderful his father was. May God bless you throughout your entire life. I love you always

Last week, January 6, 2022 LFF provided food supplies for 50 families in Sambor Village, Siem Reap Province. We would like to thaWe, the Board Members of Ladies First Foundation, would like to thank Phally Budock and her fellow members of the Stephen Ministry at Saint Andrew Apostle Catholic Church for their combined donations, which provided for two water wells and four water filters to the destitute families in Sary Village (water well #25) and
Lpov Village (water well #26) of Kok Chark commune in Siem Reap province, Cambodia. These poor folks previously had to walk long distances to fetch unclean water from creeks, rivers, or ponds for all their water needs. The water wells and filters will provide them convenient access to clean water and will no doubt make a significant impact on their quality of life. Thank you, Stephen Ministry members, for your generosity. May the Good Lord bless you and your families abundantly for your sacrifices.?❤️nk our supporters whose donations made that possible. Your generosity is blessing many lives today. We greatly appreciate your sacrifice and generosity. May God bless you all.

We would like to thank Mrs. Mealy Chhim for her donation of $50 to provide food supplies, a blanket, a mosquito net, and a mat for a destitute family in Siem Reap province. The father is blind, one daughter is autistic, and one son is handicapped. This mother works dawn to dusk to feed the whole family of 7. The 17 year old son just passed away last month because he fell from a coconut tree he was in to collect coconuts.

We appreciate Mrs. Mealy Chhim helping this family in their difficult time. May God bless them all
