Hope and Dreams (H&D) Sleepwear, previously traded as Sangkem sleepwear. Sangkem means hope in the Khmer language. Hope and Dreams Sleepwear Online Store is a registered business in Australia (ABN 44327805435) and it is owned and operated by Liz and Ly Hoban in partnership with HOPE Project Cambodia. HOPE receives 30% of the profit from the sale of the H&D Sleepwear.

HOPE is a grass-roots community organization in Prey Net Preah District, Banteay Meanchey Province Cambodia, the same community where H&D Sleepwear is made. HOPE works with the poorest and most marginalized families and provides them with financial assistance and support so their children can obtain a basic education (complete a minimum of Year 10). HOPE’s bold ambition is for the young people to continue their education at university and undertake vocational training. To achieve this goal, HOPE provides secondary and tertiary education scholarships so that young Cambodians can obtain higher education and 21st Century skills to prepare them for the careers and employment opportunities emerging in the ASEAN region. The partnership between HOPE Project Cambodia and H&D Sleepwear will ensure HOPE’s education programs remain viable and sustainable.

H&D Sleepwear is made by local seamstresses in Prey Net Preah District, under the supervision of Neang. Neang has more than 15 years of experience as a seamstress and training women to sew, initially for HOPE Project Cambodia and now she runs her own business and H&D Sleepwear is her main client. All the sleepwear is made with 100% cotton fabric and in ethical working conditions. H&D Sleepwear’s business model is underpinned by three core values: quality - fabric and sewing, cost – fair and reasonable, cause – percentage of the profit funds HOPE Project Cambodia's education programs.

We believe that through the production and sale of the beautiful H&D Sleepwear we can all make a difference to the lives of individuals, their families and communities.
