A key event within Project Hammer is the annual house building and fact-finding mission to Cambodia at participants’ personal cost. A group of around 25 volunteers – who actively participated with fundraising and organising – are spending 4 days to build homes and visit charity projects. Last year a total of 18 houses were build for Cambodian underprivileged families and the appointed 5 projects visited. This forms an essential part of Project Hammer: to experience hands-on the spending and effectuation of the funds raised on behalf of our many sponsors.
