Hollywood player turns down money and fame for the true meaning of life

Sixty-year-old Scott Neeson left a life of luxury in Hollywood for Cambodia and spent most of his time at a dumpsite before establishing the Cambodian Children's Fund (CCF).

Despite facing countless challenges and becoming seriously ill because of his job, Scott continued to fight the battle so thousands of Cambodian kids could become healthy and happy, and eventually, he found the true meaning of his life.
