HACC is a network of NGO are working on general health issues in Cambodia. HACC was set up in 1995 as a platform of NGOs worked for HIV and AIDS services and has expanded to coordinate among NGOs in health sector in late 2017. Currently, HACC is networking among 78 of 150 NGOs and CSOs are implementing on general health in Cambodia. Among those there are 23 NGOs are working on mother and child health and nutrition, 15 NGOs are working on Communicable diseases, 12 NGOs are working Non-communicable diseases and there are 12 NGOs are working on health system strengthening. HACC members has dramatically decreased from 99 NGOs in 2022 to only 78 NGOs in late 2025.

The NGOs and CSOs play critical roles in delivering health services in particularly at community level, advocating for marginalized populations, and responding to local development challenges. Most NGOs and CSOs operated primarily on institutional grants from bilateral/multilateral donors and foundations. Currently, donor funding is shrinking in many countries and Cambodia is no exception, which increased competition for grants, donor preferences shifting toward Government partnership and growing recognition that grant dependency creates vulnerability to NGOs. This large reliance on external donor threaten their sustainability, institutional stability and ability to continue serving communities.

Income diversification offer a strategic pathway to strengthen the financial resilience and sustainability of NGOs and CSOs. By equipping them with practical income diversification and social enterprise skill, organizations can reduce dependency on unpredictable donor funding and developing alternative, local generated revenue stream that complement their core mission.
