Shanty Town Spirt is preparing for its 10th anniversary celebrations on December 7th, 2023. This upcoming event, set to take place at Raffles Hotel Le Royal in Phnom Penh, signifies a decade of dedicated efforts towards social and economic empowerment in some of the city’s most underprivileged areas. Gathering support from leading Cambodian businesses and media organizations, this celebration marks a pivotal moment in Shanty Town Spirits journey of community development.
