Shine Cambodia were generously donated sunglasses from the luxury brand Kapten & Son based in Prahan, and volunteers have been selling them throughout the past nine months. 

Enthusiastic volunteers were placed at various market stalls such as the St Kilda Latin Festival and the Vida Melbourne Latin Summer Festival during the summer. 

The progressive efforts from Shine’s volunteers and Haileybury students has raised roughly $8000!

The hashtag campaign #sunniesforshine encouraged donors to show off their Kapten and Son sunglasses online, to celebrate their contribution in improving children’s’ lives in Otres.

Sunglasses are still for sale on Shine Cambodia’s Facebook page for $50 (with a RRP of $150).
