About us
Cufa fosters empowerment in line with a three pillar strategy targeting how people: (1) earn: through microenterprise and livelihood programs; (2) save: through financial literacy; and (3) invest: through access to digital tools and diverse finance sources. With the generous support of our donors and volunteers, and through our teams in Cambodia, Myanmar and PNG, we work with communities, institutions and governments to address and overcome the causes of poverty.

Cufa CEO, Darian Clark MA MICDA, and MEL Manager, Jarred Sferruzzi, concluded their visit to #Cambodia this week by meeting with the Cooperation Committee for Cambodia (CCC). The Executive Director, Sin Putheary, shared how the CCC is supporting advocacy and policy development for civil society organisations, and outlined their exciting plans for the future. It is a privilege to be a relatively new member of the CCC, which Cufa joined in late 2022. See if you can spot our logo on the banner - amongst the 180 members! #socialimpact #makeadifference #civilsociety
