What we do

Little Acorns currently supports vulnerable / orphaned children in Cambodia.

Our focus is to support the Future Light Organization (FLO). FLO’s needs align with our own objectives enabling us to support their day to day running costs including food, electricity, fire wood, medical / hygiene supplies. This close relationship enables us to witness first-hand that funds raised are used appropriately. Please refer to the “Our Achievements” section for further detail of our work so far.

We will, at all times, be diligent in our assessment in providing grants to ensure that all donations are put to the best use. All donors will be kept up to date with the progress of the projects they support.

100% of all donations will be used to directly support those in need
