Do you have a spare smartphone?

Since coming to Cambodia I’ve maintained the philosophy that I can’t possibly help everyone, but I can help someone.
I never just give cash, I rather try to do something to enable the recipient to generate an income. My hobby is creating micro businesses for people - not for them to earn a fortune but at least enough to support themselves.
So this guy has a new moto and is super excited to start working. He’s recently arrived from the province and is polite, friendly and speaks English.
(I’m friends with his sister, he’s not just some random).
He received the moto yesterday along with helmet, the bike was serviced and stickers were replaced. It was a really good find.
However I didn’t factor a smartphone into the budget, I very stupidly didn’t consider the fact he may only have an analogue phone.
So here is my plea- Does anyone have a spare smartphone they can lend him until he saves enough money to buy his own? (I will be taking him to ABA to open a savings account). I will vouch for him and if anything happens to the phone, I will replace it.
