He Sold his Luxuries to Save Children in Cambodia

These are the types people that need praise and awards. These are the types of people we need to hear about because they exhibit a leadership quality in service to others that few possess.

Scott Neeson, former head of 20th Century Fox International left Hollywood to save children scavenging in Cambodia’s garbage dumps.

He was initially stunned by the desperation and unlikely courage of the families and children there. Neeson spent most of his 2003 Southeast Asian holiday laying the foundation for Cambodian Children’s Fund (CCF). One year later he sold his mansion, porsche, several other cars, boats and a yacht and set off for Cambodia to provide food, shelter, and education to destitute children. Today, CCF offers refuge, education, medical treatment and leadership training to more than 1,500 children.

A wonderful man, a wonderful heart.

Respect Mr Neeson. You are amazing!!
