Dear YKIP Friend, 

We are happy to e-meet you on our this project report. 

As you might remember, we bid farewell to 85 students in grade 12 who got their Senior High School Diplomas in June last year. With this graduation, there are 375 In this new academic year, we welcomed 43 new students to be a part of KEMBALI Scholarship Program. Thus, in 2023, YKIP supporting 503 students. 

For the new academic year 2023-2024, the numbers of students 413 (continuing and new students) in the program areas as below:

• Kuta                : 3
• Denpasar        : 47
• Gianyar           : 146
• Karangasem   : 132
• Bangli              : 40
• Buleleng          : 39
• Mengwi            : 9

The first school supplies distribution of the scholarship will be held in the third week of August. The preparation for the event started at the beginning of August by sending acknowledgment letters to the students' schools. We hope that by informing the school, YKIP will have a good relationship with the school and they could help YKIP to monitor the sponsored students when they are at school.  

In this event, YKIP will distribute these items to the students:

1. School supplies (books, stationeries)
2. Shoes and socks
3. Bag
4. Uniform

For the students who start the new school, YKIP will pay the registration fee and other related fees to the school directly. YKIP staff also meet the school official to maintain a good relationship with them and have their support to monitor the sponsored students at school. 

We would like to thank you for your continuous support of YKIP and our scholarship program so that we could continue our program until today. 

We will share another update with you after we finished the school supplies distribution to the student. Stay tuned!

Thank you and warmest regards,

YKIP Team 

Dear Donors, 

May this report find you well. 

On April 9, YKIP started the scholarship distribution to the students who live in Karangasem Regency.  It is the second distribution event we have this year. The distribution then continued to Denpasar, Mengwi, and Gianyar regency. By the first month of May, YKIP expects the distribution in two other areas, Pengotan and Tejakula will finish.

During the event, YKIP distributed transport allowances to all students. This allowance is expected to help the students cover the transportation cost to the school. With this support, we hope that there is no student discontinue their education because they are unable to come to school because they don't have the money to pay transportation fees. 

We also bid farewell to 12 grader students who we met for the last time. In a few weeks, the 85 students will get their high school diploma and will no longer become KEMBALI Scholarship program beneficiaries. We collect thank you letters from them to be forwarded to their donors.

This is what a student in Gianyar wrote in her letter:

"The scholarship I got from YKIP enables me to continue my study in Senior High School. I also got support in planning my career. I was invited to the career planning workshop December last year. I learned from great speakers in the workshop. I can plan my future better after attending the workshop."

 We wish all the best for the students who finished their studies this year. Also, we would like to thank you for your generosity in supporting our KEMBALI Scholarship program. With your support, we can help more students a step closer to their dream. 

May you and your loved ones are always healthy,  

YKIP Team
