In and around the small village of Sobhan, Dar and I work with a growing group of committed Cambodians to offer hope and real opportunities to poor and desperate people who are struggling to live from day to day.

AdVenture Cambodia

AdVenture Cambodia: is an evolving group of social enterprises in Cambodia. We hope each business "AdVenture" will become profitable and will benefit employees and their families. Profits will also be used to expand current AdVentures and start up new AdVentures, all in an effort to meet needs in rural Cambodia and to train and employ more people. Finally, some profits will be transferred to Jumpah and help support its services to orphans and poor families.

Vision: In every village, children modeling love, joy, hard work and service to God and to people.

Values: Teamwork; Service; Holistic ministry; Hard work; Family; Development / Growth; Common sense; Leadership; Respect; Joy; Compassion; Use of personal gifts.


Current Project Activity:


           Jumpah School: A private preschool, kindergarten and primary school registered with the ministry of education. Village families pay a monthly tuition fee. Scholarships from supporters subsidize the operational costs of the school.

            Wood Shop: The wood shop provides training in woodworking skills to young people in surrounding villages, and offers successful students permanent jobs.

           Demonstration Center / Farm: A small farm struggles to be profitable, while modeling appropriate activities to rural farmers.The farm also trains farmers and provides permanent jobs to some.

            Retail Store: A retail shop in Phnom Penh markets and sells products from each of the enterprises mentioned.
