Fundraising for Bali
This event is a fundraiser for an event which my school runs annually, titled ‘Run For Membantu’. You might be wondering, what does ‘membantu’ mean? Well, translated to English it simply means: ‘help’. The event is an adapted school cross country, which now encourages students to raise money for underprivileged children in Bali.
My school works with two organisations: BaliLife Foundation and Widhya Asih Foundation. Let’s find out a little more about them:
BaliLife Foundation: BaliLife helps kids off the street by providing a place to live, food to eat and education through to their graduation in a university course of their choice. They also aid in Suwung, the largest tip in Denpasar, where parents collect rubbish for 17 hours a day to earn roughly $2. BaliLife does this through teaching English and sewing skills to mothers, education to the children and providing hygiene packs to each of the families.
Widhya Asih Foundation: Widhya Asih are a collection of childrens homes, of which, my school sponsors two: one in Melaya and another in Blimbingsari. The Foundation allows children who’s parents may be too poor to provide for them with schooling opportunities, a safe place to live with great food to eat and a communinity-like atmosphere.
But Why?
Last year I was lucky enough to go on a mission trip with my school to each of the places mentioned above. We packed and dispersed hygiene packs in Suwung, Melaya and Blimbingsari, lived with the children in Melaya for a week whilst aiding in building projects - such as safer pathways and pavements. To me, the trip left me empowered to do what I can to help out, and this is one of the ways I’ve decided to do so.
So, for more information, and to securely donate (donations will be taken in AUD), follow the link below. Any money which can be raised goes directly to the two foundations, and is vital to the life changing support these foundations provide. Even $1 will help endlessly in the flight against the poverty cycle.
