Sembako Food Packages Delivery
Once per month, we visit all the Bukit area families we have supported so far. The monthly food packages provided through our NOURISH program go beyond addressing basic nutritional needs. By visiting regularly, we show our ongoing commitment to their well-being and strengthen the trust we have bu...
Sembako for Ibu Wayan
After visiting Ibu Wayan Senin we are still clueless about how we can support her. Ever since her husband passed away 4 months ago she feels lonely, depressed and left behind. Her son and her daughter-in-law check in on her regularly to make sure she has everything that she needs. But how can one...
X-Mas at Bali Life Street Kids Center
When we were asked by the BaliLife Foundation - if we could donate Sembako (9 basic groceries) for the Christmas party of their Streetkids Center - we obviously said yes right away. It made us super happy that the hotel managers Javi from “Bandido” and Rita from “Ronja” joined us today and paid ...
Ragam's Community Kitchen
Today we drove to the Ragam community kitchen to cook together with its founder Nick Nasi Bunkus for the families affected by the TPA Suwung trash fire and for other people in need. The ingredients for today's cooking mission were purchased with your donations. After Nick had explained to us how...
Supporting Swung Trash Pickers
Have you ever asked yourself what happens with the trash we produce here on the beautiful island of Bali? It all goes to massive landfills. The biggest one called “TPA Suwung” is currently on fire. This trash dump is home to over 200 families, who literally live in the trash - earning their livel...

Shopping for Ibu Yayuk
Today we visited Ibu Yayuk and her family in the fishing village of Medewi in Bali. They used to live a good life, but when her father Pak Lani went blind and their third child, little Hannah, was born Ibu Yayuk was forced to quit her job and to stay at home. Since then, her husband’s monthly sal...
Ibu Wayan and Pak Made
Today we visited Ibu Wayan and her husband Pak Made. They live together with their dog in very poor conditions, only 15 minutes away from the thriving tourist town of Uluwatu. We regularly bring them food supplies, as they are 100% dependent on the help of others. Today we signed them up for a w...
Ragam's Community Kitchen
After Nick had explained to us how to chop the long beans he told us more about his foundation: he cooks Tuesday to Saturday together with his team and with the help of volunteers for many different social projects. After we finished chopping a seemingly endless amount of vegetables we prepared the rice and cooked a delicious tempeh and a tasty noodle dish.
Now it was time to introduce us to the magic skill of wrapping Nasi Bunkus. We got the hang of it pretty quickly - we packed 600 Nasi Bunkus for 2mio Rupiah (120$) worth of ingredients - that’s 3,000 Rupiah (20 cents) per portion. After prepping the wrapping paper for the next day it was time for the delivery. Our fist stop was the BaliLife street kids center, followed by the vision house orphanage in Denpasar, then the YPK rehabilitation center for the physically disabled and at the end the BaliLife TPA Suwung community center, where our precooked Nasi Bunkus delivery was already awaited.
All of these people would have had nothing to eat today, if it wasn’t for your generous donations and the amazing work of Ragam foundation.
