September 2026 Double your impact this September! Your donations made during the month of September will be matched dollar for dollar. *Want to make twice the impact? September’s the month to donate.
We are jumping for joy!
This September marks two amazing milestones: the 20th anniversary of Cambodian Village Fund (CVF) and the 60th wedding anniversary of our founders Bill and Nancy Bamberger. September is also the month when every donation is matched dollar-for-dollar*, doubling your impact!
When Bill and Nancy founded CVF 20 years ago they said, “if we can change just one life it will all be worth it.” 20 years later CVF has improved thousands of lives through scholarships, school infrastructure and English language, science, and computer classes.
Your support of CVF has lifted up an entire region in rural Cambodia. The public schools CVF supports have been recognized as model schools by the Ministry of Education, Youth, and Sports. In fact, the first school CVF helped to build almost 15 years ago is now the top public primary school, out of 644 others, in all of Battambang Province.
No signs of slowing down.
After 20 years of impact CVF shows no signs of slowing down as programs continue to expand and provide opportunities to even more rural Cambodian students.
The lesson is clear: if you educate the children, they change the world. In less than a single generation, CVF’s remarkable scholarship graduates have broken the cycle of poverty for themselves, their families, and their communities.
Your investments in CVF programs over the last 20 years planted the seeds, and now the crop is in, and it’s bigger than anyone could have imagined!
Make your impact last!
As CVF celebrates 20 years, consider extending your generosity beyond today by including CVF in your will, trust, or estate plan. A planned gift costs nothing now but helps Cambodian villages for the next 20 years and beyond. Curious how? Ask us, we’re happy to talk through your options.
Your donation, large or small, helps carry these vital programs forward into the next 20 years!
All donations matched in September. *Let’s celebrate 20 years of success!
