Families in rural Kota Belud, Sabah have been struggling to survive and provide a better future for their children. Daily life for villagers in the 74 remote and neglected rural communities in the Kadamaian area of Kota Belud is only becoming harder due to worsening challenges stemming from increasing poverty. The rising cost of living and pandemic hardships have resulted in many families and their children just barely surviving each day.
 

Throughout these isolated villages, women and farmers are not able to progress and reach their full potential for their families resulting from the lack of means for sustainable rural living. Their children are greatly affected and face more difficulties in having a brighter future. Without the basic needs, skills and knowledge to improve their livelihoods, families continue to live unsustainably in underdeveloped communities, continuing to be stuck in the cycle of poverty for generations.
