THE BEN STOKES TEAM Eleven inspiring individuals joined forces to run an incredible campaign, which has come to be known to us as “The Ben Stokes Team”. Their common goal was to raise enough money to build a brand new school in Cambodia. Not only did they raise the money needed for the construction of Keo Pich Primary School (due for completion in Cambodia in March 2019), they exceeded their fundraising target and were also able to commit $20,000 towards the construction of Ou Sralao Primary School – a school that required funding to complete construction. Fundraisers ran marathons, cycled on a hydro-bike across an ocean, held fundraising events and played poker games to raise their funds. This campaign made history with one fundraiser breaking a world record (see Unforgettable Fundraisers) and the team collectively setting a new CoH record for highest funds raised in a single campaign. $104, 641 Ou Sralao Lech Primary School
