Daughters of Cambodia

A small shop and cafe which is the base for a charitable group that help Cambodians move on from the sex industry. The shop sells handmade t-shirts and trinkets while the cafe upstairs sells scrummy food and coffee. All the profits go towards the cause by providing them with an income and also to develop their confidence and life skills. The shop is just minutes walk away from the national museum so can be a nice place to drop in for some lunch or a coffee. Here's a bit more about what they do in their own words... "Daughters of Cambodia is a faith-based group of non-profit social enterprises operating in Phnom Penh with the sole purpose of offering a new life of freedom to victims of sex-trafficking and sex-exploitation in Cambodia. We reach out to those who are trapped in the sex industry and offer opportunities to them to walk free, start a new life and learn how to sustain within community settings. Daughters operate non-residential centres in the heart of Phnom Penh's red light areas, where young women or young men wishing to leave sex work are taught how to change their life-style, and provided with employment in one of our 9 fair-trade businesses, along with a range of social and psychological services."
