Zhiger Atchabarov commented on the occasion, "At ABA Bank, we believe that CSR is about creating a lasting impact. By supporting the renovation of the Krousar Thmey center, we're helping create a safe and inspiring space for children to learn and grow. Every child, regardless of their upbringing, deserves the opportunity to thrive, and we're proud to play a role in making that possible."
"This partnership with ABA Bank marks a meaningful step forward in our mission to protect and empower vulnerable children. The renovation of the Takhmao center will not only improve the physical environment but also foster dignity, creativity, and hope for every child we serve," said Sok Vanseka, Executive Director, Raksa Koma Organization
Im Sophea, Deputy Director, Krousar Thmey Organization, expressed, "We are deeply grateful for ABA Bank's support in revitalizing our Takhmao center. These improvements will significantly enhance the quality of care and education we provide, helping children feel safe, inspired, and ready to pursue their dreams."
