Dolly Mudongo, a mother of seven from Khoma village, transformed her life through participation in a Saving and Internal Lending Community (SILC) supported by the GAINS Tuya Kumpala project. Previously struggling with unstable income and limited resources, she gained access to savings and small loans that allowed her to grow her soap-making business. Within months, her earnings increased, enabling her to meet her family’s basic needs and improve their food security. Today, Dolly enjoys greater financial stability and looks to the future with confidence, illustrating the impact of community-based savings groups in empowering vulnerable households.

World Vision International in Cambodia’s 2025 Impact Report highlights a year of resilience, adaptation, and collective action amid significant humanitarian and development challenges. In a rapidly changing context shaped by sector‑wide disruptions and escalating border‑related conflict, World Vision Cambodia worked closely with government authorities, partners, communities, and donors to respond to urgent needs while sustaining long‑term development efforts. In 2025, World Vision Cambodia reached 5.4 million people, including 3.1 million children, nearly one third of Cambodia’s population. Humanitarian response remained a critical priority, supporting over 144,000 displaced people across 100 displacement sites, including children and people with disabilities, through life‑saving assistance such as water, sanitation, food and non‑food items, cash assistance, education, health and nutrition services, protection, and psychosocial support. Beyond emergency response, progress was achieved across education, child protection, WASH, nutrition, livelihoods, climate action, social accountability, and inclusive programming. The year also marked 55 years of World Vision’s long‑term commitment in Cambodia, reflecting sustained partnership and a shared vision for every child to experience life in all its fullness.

Rouka Douzané turned small savings into a thriving restaurant that now employs 13 people. She provides her community with both income opportunities and a welcoming space to gather. Beyond business, she champions women’s rights by fighting harmful practices like child marriage and gender-based violence.

In Mabalako, a small loan of about 105 US dollars from a Village Savings and Loan Association helped Neema, a 28-year-old mother displaced by violence, rebuild her life. After fleeing attacks by the Allied Democratic Forces with her husband and five daughters, the family struggled to survive through daily labor. Through the Empower project, implemented by World Vision with support from Irish Aid, Neema joined a savings group where she accessed small loans to start selling vegetables and tomatoes in the local market. The business allowed her to repay the credit, cover her children’s basic needs, and begin building a home with her husband. Neema’s story highlights how community savings groups are strengthening the economic resilience and self-reliance of conflict-affected families in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo, offering hope in a region long affected by insecurity and poverty.
