Hollywood Mogul Made a Difference ...and You Can Too!

He Changed His Life to Make a Difference...
Walk With Us and You Can Too

Life made sense at the height of his career in Hollywood with a beautiful house, pool, fast cars and money, achievements most people dream of.  Until  Scott Neeson made a  trip abroad that changed his life. In 2003 Scott visited Phnom Penh in Cambodia and what met him, he described as 'hell'. Eleven hectares of garbage covered in flies, with over 3,000 families and hundreds of orphans living either on or around the dump scavenging for items to sell, doing their best to avoid the fires caused by the methane from the decomposing rubbish. Child prostitutes and abandoned children scoured the area, either for themselves or for their families.

Scott abandoned his Hollywood career and celebrity life style to help provide a better future for the children of Cambodia and  future generations. 

   Today Scott serves as CCF's Executive Director, performing daily fieldwork and overseeing the operations of CCF's various facilities. Changing the lives of over a thousand children from some of Cambodia's most destitute communities and offering them a sustainable future through education, training, nourishment and healing.
 

With your help CCF will continue to grow and reach out to more families in need,  making the differences that are so desperately needed.
