Thanks to your support and donations, Kid's Club in Nusa Dua specifically is starting to take shape and look like a school and classroom. Although due to COVID, we've not been allowed to resume activities since the first of the year. The down-time has allowed us to prepare fully to resume. Since launching this campaign and the closing due to COVID, we've been able to finish painting the interior walls and ceiling. The front exterior wall has also been painted. Due to an unusually wet rainy season, the roof was leaking terribly in the classroom. The tin roof on the classroom portion of the building has now been replaced. Also, a local artist painted a fun, beautiful mural for the Kid's Club which has really added to the feel and look of it being a children's school. Colorful tables and chairs were ordered and have been delivered. Shelving and much needed supplies are now all stocked up! The kids love everything and are excited in knowing this was done all for them!!!
Since the first of the year, our staff have been receiving messages from the kids telling them how much they missed them and want to start Kid's Club again. Thankfully, within the past 2 weeks, we have been allowed to resume daily activities once again. The classroom is now buzzing with excitement to learn, study and play games.
Our plans now are to begin to shift to the newest Kid's Club location on a neighboring island, Surabaya. We have started the process of getting quotes for much needed repairs for the facility that has been donated to us and interviewing potential volunteers and staff.
None of this would have been possible without your support and recognizing and responding to the value of education for the underprivileged children and youth of Indonesia.
