Our ultimate goal of "Nurturing leaders. Changing lives." started with the identification and selection of a cohort of 16-year-old students with two years of high school remaining before graduation. Through a research-based and tested recruitment process, we identified a cohort of students in March 2014. Final selection of 7 exceptional young leaders was completed in May 2014.

We determined that, due to financial limitations, these students did not and will not have the funds to attend university after high school. This is a stark reality for thousands of young Cambodians who are destined to drop out of school to work in factories or farms, marry at a young age, or move from their province to a bigger city to find work.

We believe, our CFF students will realize their potential and make decisions that will have an impact on their lives, the lives of others, and their community and country.

Currently CFF owns a headquarters and boarding facility in a tranquil neighborhood in Phnom Penh. Our students live together in harmony learning with and from each other. CFF has also opened its doors to other needy university students who cannot afford housing in Phnom Penh. These students are vetted and selected by our Executive Director. These students can take advantage of CFF English classes and workshops.

CFF students have already had a huge impact on their community by designing and implementing projects that benefit others. They have launched a school beautification and tree planting project tat culminated in changing behaviors about trash; a soccer league for boys and girls; and the construction of outdoor toilet facilities for low income families.

CFF is governed by two boards. Our international board (with members living in the USA, Singapore, China, and UAE) is responsible for fundraising and policy development. Our amazing local Cambodian Board is responsible for operations, supervision of our Executive Director, and local rules and regulations.

We hope our students will development and cultivate a passion for a career that has a positive and eternal impact on their country.
