Eggshell Cambodia Summer Challenge

The Belfast–based charity Eggshell Cambodia wants you to get active in support of the education, care and safety of some of Cambodia’s most vulnerable children.  

“And I would walk 500 miles…..” and 5868 more to get from Belfast to Phnom Penh. This summer join in the challenge: walk, run, cycle, swim, rollerblade, skateboard, cartwheel your way to helping us cover the distance from here to all those we support in Cambodia. We’d love for you to challenge yourselves – and each other – to use the time to reconnect and forge friendships. Include friends, families and anyone willing to join you. 

About

Mark and Liz Fetherstonhaugh (parishioners of Willowfield Church) first developed an interest in and concern for Cambodia in 2008. Some of the poorest families there live in cardboard homes, built in the cesspits under other homes — the conditions are indescribable. 

“In the next few months an exciting expansion is planned that would see more than double our current number of children supported in an environment that teaches them necessary skills, feeds them well and, most importantly, keeps them safe from possible exploitation in an environment that nurtures creativity, curiosity and a love for Jesus. 

“In caring for them, we also help their families by allowing them to earn money to help lift them out of poverty. The expansion would also provide a facility for the wider community.”
