Education

What if a small gift could change a child's life—and their future?

The KiDS in Dire Straits Foundation is dedicated to helping vulnerable children in Indonesia by providing them with opportunities for education, healthcare, and hope. Together with trusted local partners, we invest in children because every child deserves the chance to learn, grow, and make their dreams come true.

Project 1

For many children with autism, Down syndrome, and other developmental challenges, attending school is not a given. A lack of transport prevents some children from attending classes every day.
Stichting KiDS aims to purchase a second-hand minibus in partnership with the school, enabling more children to travel to school safely.

Target amount: €5,000

Your donation is more than just a contribution toward a bus. 

Project 2

A place where every child can grow

Children with autism and other developmental challenges deserve the same opportunities as any other child. At Anak Manis, they receive the personal guidance, education, and attention they need to develop. Limited financial resources are putting this special school under pressure. With your support, you help children grow in self-confidence, communication skills, and independence.

Your donation gives a child more than just a school; you provide hope, development, and a future.

Project 3
Banua Berkah

More than an orphanage

Banua Berkah is a safe home for vulnerable babies, boys, and girls. Here, they receive loving care, education, and protection. Yet resources are limited. There is a constant need for beds, food, school supplies, clothing, and medical care. Through practical assistance, the KiDS Foundation makes a difference every day. A bed. A meal. A safe place to grow up.

Things we take for granted. For them, a new future.
