About Lotus Lives
Lotus Lives is a non-profit charity set up to help orphans, street children, and underprivileged people living in Cambodia. In 2008 a group of people from Galway raised money through The Streets of Galway Road Race to help a children’s orphanage and families living in the slums of Phnom Penh. Such was the gratitude that came back from these people, that it was decided to make this an annual event, and so Lotus Lives was born.
