For some students with autism, Down syndrome, or other support needs, attending school every day is not a given. A lack of suitable transport can cause children to miss classes. Stichting KiDS, together with SLB Negeri 2 Amuntai, aims to help fund the purchase of a reliable second-hand minibus. This will enable the school to transport more students safely and consistently.

Target amount: €5,000

Your contribution supports safe transport and better access to appropriate education.

ANAK MANIS supports children with autism and other support needs. The staff provide education and personal guidance tailored to each child's development. Together with the organization, Stichting KiDS assesses what form of support is appropriate, responsible, and sustainable. In doing so, we focus on specific objectives, the financial basis, and the methods used to track results. With carefully tailored support, children can continue to grow in communication, self-confidence, and independence.

Project completed:
The first phase of our project at Tunas Harapan has now been successfully completed.

Thanks to the support received, the KiDS Foundation was able to make a significant contribution to improving the boys' living conditions and health. The kitchen has been equipped with necessary appliances and furnishings, including a refrigerator, freezer, stove, mixers, rice cookers, and a set of cooking pots. In addition, air conditioning units have been installed, along with a high-capacity water filtration system, ensuring the boys have access to safe, clean drinking water. The boys also received an electronic keyboard for their music band. Music not only brings joy and relaxation but also allows them to develop their talents together; furthermore, performances generate income that supports the orphanage's internal economy.

Now it is time for phase 2: the renovation of the washrooms and toilets. These facilities are in urgent need of improvement and represent a crucial next step toward creating a safe, hygienic, and dignified living environment for the boys. We are once again calling on our donors and sponsors for this second phase. Every contribution, large or small, helps us make this next step possible.
