Why a Challenge Program?
The Cambodian Leadership Challenge is part of the CUFA Challenge Program series.
The CUFA Challenge programs are an exciting range of activities designed to
take people out of their comfort zones. They offer a unique insight into
a country's culture allowing for an intimate connection with communities
and their credit union movement.
As leadership, self development and team-building programs, the CUFA Challenge
series are second to none as they bring people together during an interdependent,
testing and rewarding journey, whilst providing participants with an enjoyable,
inspirational and unforgettable learning experience.
What are the challenges?
There are 4 main challenge components in the Cambodian Leadership Challenge;
1. Fundraising Challenge
Participants must fundraise a minimum of $3,000 each before commencing
the trip to Cambodia. The fundraising element empowers people to get
involved
and become effective ambassadors for mutuals and cooperatives.
100% of monies raised will be used for the Children’s Financial Literacy
Program in Cambodia.
2. Physical Challenge
Participants must train for and complete a 4 day cycling challenge, from
Siem Reap to Battambang. This challenge component will test people’s
mental and physical strength and is a superb opportunity for developing mental
strength,
teamwork, and of course improve physical health and fitness.
3. Cultural, Emotional, Intellectual Challenge
Participants gain first-hand experience of being in Cambodian, learning about
the emerging savings banks movement and engaging in activities and situations
that are culturally and emotionally beyond the norms and comfort zones of a
conventional western lifestyle.
The Cambodian Leadership Challenge offers excellent exposure to different culture,
beliefs, traditions and ideas.
4. Community Service
After returning from Cambodia, participants are required to complete 100
hours of community service. CUFA encourages ongoing community engagement
through
volunteering within your community. It is also hoped that participants
are willing and able to continue their relationship with CUFA’s projects
in Cambodia.
