130 children.
Foreign aid.
One student.

In 2024, every donor withdrew without warning. The children kept walking to school anyway. Phoenix high school students decided that was not acceptable.

Why We Exist

Not a club. Not a resume line.
Two real purposes — running simultaneously.

Every dollar tracked publicly. Every officer earns real credentials. Every campaign ends with a field report and an invitation to Cambodia.

01
The Mission

This is not a feel-good extracurricular. Two purposes run simultaneously. First: raise real money for real children with specific goals and named outcomes. Second: build the next generation of leaders through the process of doing it.

Every dollar is tracked publicly. Every donor sees exactly what their contribution did. No vague impact statements. No rounding errors.

100% tracked publicly
02
Fund

$25,000 combined goal. $0 foreign aid received since 2024. Seven specific named campaigns with measurable goals, named officers, and field reports on close.

Every donor receives a public field report from Kakot Village when their campaign closes. You will know exactly what your money did, by name, with photos.

$0 foreign aid since 2024
03
Lead

Design a real campaign from scratch. Build a real donor network. Manage a real goal with a real deadline. Close with a real field report.

Earn a CHEA Institute recommendation letter, a named officer title, and priority access to the Cambodia 2027 trip. Real credentials — not fake ones.

Cambodia 2027 trip
Founder & Initiative Director
Munica PisethKun
Started this at 14.
"Age is not a barrier to leadership. We run real campaigns, raise real money, and visit the children we serve. This is not practice — this is impact."

Munica learned about the crisis in Kakot Village and did not wait for permission to act. She built CHEA Youth from zero — the team, the field partnership with CCLF, the officer structure, the Cambodia trip framework. Every system on this site was designed by a high school sophomore.

She answers every officer application personally within 48 hours. She travels to Cambodia in 2027 alongside every officer who earned their seat.

What Happened

2024. Every donor disappeared.

In 2024, every foreign organization funding education, meals, and healthcare for 130+ children in Kakot Village withdrew without warning. No transition plan. No replacement funding.

The children kept walking to school anyway. Every single day.

CHEA's field partner CCLF has operated in Kakot since 2017 and remained when every foreign donor left. That continuity makes CHEA Youth's donations immediately deployable.

Phoenix-area high school students built CHEA Youth on one principle: radical transparency, real outcomes. Every donor receives a named field report.

"Design a campaign. Run it. Travel to Cambodia to meet the children you served — face to face."
