Golden Leaf Education Foundation

Congratulations to Operation Jenda!

You have reached your fundraising goal of $30,000 to build the school library at the Doung Het School in the Kratie Province in Cambodia! This will be the first, Golden Leaf Education Foundation (GLEF) library building.

To the Khut family, GLEF thanks you for leading in kindness and generosity, putting service before self in helping to make a big dream come true. To all that donated to this campaign, thank you!

On October 23, 2021, Miss Alison “Jenda”, during her family’s Benefit Concert, received the first, GLEF Founder’s Prestigious Award in honor of all the efforts she made in helping to reach this amazing goal. From inspiring the supportive adults in her life, to her heartfelt, spirited songs, and her orange juice stand — all were vehicles in raising funds to help to meet this ambitious goal.

Jenda, you are GLEF’s youngest philanthropist at five years old. May your future be bright, be very kind to you, and may you always fueled by the love of learning. Again, Thank You! GLEF looks forward to the next steps in the process of building the actual library!

Since 2010, GLEF has constructed 6 school buildings, 5 play courts, plus supporting projects providing uniforms, school supplies and bikes that has served over 6,000 students in rural Cambodia.

Soup Pha, GLEF thanks you for sharing your gift of bringing people together in song and positivity and we cannot wait to hear you sing — again!
