Widya Kindergarten

Project Type: Medium Renovation Project
Percentage Complete: 0%
Remaining Costs: $10,700 USD

About

The school building appears to be in good condition in pictures, but a direct visit reveals a different story. Forty children learn in a damp, leaky classroom without adequate educational materials, relying solely on writing and singing. The outdoor playground is worn out and rusty, adding to the challenges. As the only school in the village, it is a crucial institution for early education. The majority of villagers are farmers and craftsmen, which limits the community’s ability to improve the school’s conditions.

Kumara Dwipa Kindergarten

Project Type: Medium Renovation Project
Percentage Complete: 0%
Remaining Costs: $15,000 USD

About

The school building appears to be in good condition in photographs. However, a direct visit reveals a different reality: 39 children learning in a damp, leaky classroom. The building lacks a ceiling, exacerbating the leaks, and creating an unsuitable learning environment. In addition to structural issues, the school suffers from a shortage of proper supplies, and the outdoor playground equipment is worn out and rusty. The majority of the villagers are farmers and laborers, making it difficult for the community to address these problems on their own.

Abang Kindergarten

Project Type: Medium Renovation Project
Percentage Complete: 0%
Remaining Costs: $19,000 USD

About

Our kindergarten operates within a single, partially completed building that houses two classrooms and an external toilet. The structure is unfinished due to financial constraints faced by the villagers, resulting in the absence of a ceiling and walls plagued with dampness and mold. The school also struggles with a lack of basic supplies and teaching equipment. Additionally, the playground equipment is old and rusted, posing safety hazards for the children. Despite these challenges, this kindergarten is the sole educational institution in the village, serving as a crucial foundation for early childhood education in the community.

Tengah Kindergarten

Remaining Costs: $30,000 USD

About

Despite the teacher’s best efforts to brighten up this old teachers dormitory with paint, nothing can hide it’s terrible condition. The two buildings in this kindergarten are in very bad condition. The kindergarten is not fit for purpose with the walls so moldy that the wet marks are everywhere, paint peels and the steel frame is even visible. Their playground is mostly broken and the school has hardly any supplies. We aim to undertake a large renovation here, gutting the old building and rebuilding them a new two-classroom school.

Sampalan Kindergarten

Project Type: Large New Build Project
Percentage Complete: 0%
Remaining Costs: $32,000 USD

About

Cramped and overcrowded, this kindergarten does not have nearly enough space for the 50 students who attend it. A rural community, the majority of villagers here are fisherman and laborers. The current room they are using is part of the village office, but it is in very poor condition. The roof is broken and water flow through when it rains. The school has a lot of damp, which is hazardous for children’s health. They lack of supplies, furnishing and teaching learning materials. Their outdoor playground are broken and rusty. We plan to build a completely new kindergarten on village land so they can finally study in comfort.

Mekar Sari Kindergarten

Project Type: Large New Build Project
Percentage Complete: 0%
Remaining Costs: $29,000 USD

About

Every year, children from 331 families send their children to this kindergarten, which can’t truly be called a kindergarten as they have no building. They are using community building (known as a Balai Banjar) for running the classes. In rainy season, children cannot go to school and study because it is open sided and the whole place gets soaked. Furthermore, as a working Balai Banjar, when there are community activities such as a mass cremation ceremony, the school also closes. This Kindergarten has no proper supplies either and the standard of education is poor. The village has land available but they cannot afford to build a school. We aim to build this village a completely new kindergarten on this land.
