Optimism NZ is working with NGO - Flame Cambodia - to help the women in Cambodia’s slums to start and grow their own small (micro) businesses - so that they can feed their families and their communities sustainably.

Slums are a way of life for a lot of Cambodians, and small makeshift villages pop up by rivers, dumps, rural parts of outlying towns and even in the centre of the capital, Phnom Penh.

The people who live in the slums will probably never get out of the slums, but with the help of some dedicated local NGO's, some of them actually do stand a chance of leaving poverty behind, for education, business and a life of opportunity.

Sussan Ockwell takes her video crew into the Phnom Penh slums to meet some of the women who have small businesses, and listens to their stories.

See how Optimism is helping, how you can help, and discover how a little goes a long way in Cambodia.
