This Saturday Love146 Director of Prevention, Glenn Miles met with community leaders to present 80 bicycles to children living in the blue tent community outside of Phnom Penh, Cambodia.The blue tent community is a group of over 450 families who were evicted from their homes by the government and relocated outside of Phnom Penh city. The land that they were relocated to lacks basic needs. There is no clean water or sanitation. The local school is about 2km from the blue tent community. Commuting to and from school is a challenge for the children and leaves them vulnerable to trafficking and exploitation. These bicycles will help to reduce their vulnerability traveling to and from school.
