community care

 

We take pride in giving back to our community and actively support several meaningful projects.

You can be part of our efforts by contributing to any of our Community Care initiatives. Each project has different needs and welcomes any form of support.

Below is a summary of our projects—if you’d like to get involved or know someone who might be interested, please reach out to us!

Note: No funds are given directly to schools or orphanages. Instead, we oversee construction, order materials, and pay for all works directly to ensure 100% of contributions go straight to the projects.

 

Our Projects

 

Komunitas Taman Hati

At Sourcing Bali, we are committed to giving back to the community by supporting those in need. One of our key initiatives is in collaboration with Komunitas Taman Hati, a local NGO dedicated to helping Bali’s most vulnerable. Through this partnership, we visit impoverished areas to provide essential food, medical supplies, toiletries, and financial aid.

Our journey with Komunitas Taman Hati began in February 2017, when we distributed $500 worth of groceries, clothing, and supplies to four families in desperate need. Among the recipients were two disabled seniors, a 34-year-old paraplegic from a traffic accident, and a 14-year-old abandoned boy.

In June 2017, we continued our efforts, traveling to Bangli in central Bali. This time, we provided over $1,000 worth of goods and supplies to five families, including three abandoned elderly individuals, a stroke victim, and a mentally ill, deaf, and blind man.

Even small acts of kindness can make a profound difference. We remain dedicated to supporting Komunitas Taman Hati in their mission to find and assist those in need.

Y.P.A.C – A School for Special Needs Children

For the past 16 years, Desmond has been sponsoring Nyoman Purnawan, a young man born with Cerebral Palsy. At just four years old, he was found living in extreme poverty—a dugout hole with his twin brother, father, and elderly grandmother. His mother had passed away shortly after his birth, leaving his father, Wayan Ganti, struggling to support the family. Their home was nothing more than a sheet of asbestos roofing, offering little protection from the elements.

Over the years, Desmond and friends have helped transform Nyoman’s life—building a modest home, providing clean water access, and supporting the children’s education.

For years, Nyoman was denied schooling due to his disability. Finally, in 2003, at the age of nine, he was accepted into YPAC, a specialist school in Jimbaran, where he now stays during the week and returns home on weekends.

YPAC serves 35 students, 18 of whom live on-site full-time. The school urgently needs teaching aids, sports equipment, books, writing materials, and even basic kitchen appliances like a fridge.

Without education, Nyoman’s future would have been bleak. Instead, he has been given the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive. Help us support Nyoman and other children like him in securing a better future.

Panti Asuhan Salam, Tabanan

Since 1998, we have been supporting Panti Asuhan Salam, a Christian orphanage in Tabanan that provides a home for children from across Indonesia, especially from the poverty-stricken eastern islands.

In the early years, our support focused on building essential facilities, including new bathrooms, a kitchen, dining hall, and office space. Today, the orphanage is home to 46 children, ranging in age from 4 to 17 years old.

Thankfully, they now receive greater support from various patrons, allowing us to shift our focus to other community projects. However, we continue to coordinate donations of used clothing, toys, sports equipment, rice, books, and school supplies for the children.

One of our most rewarding achievements was the construction of a new basketball court, completed thanks to generous donations from friends overseas. The project cost over Rp 140,000,000, with more than half funded through contributions. Seeing the kids' joy and laughter as they played on their brand-new court made it all worthwhile!

If you’d like to contribute, donations of any kind are always greatly appreciated. Let’s continue making a difference together!

Bali Street Children Project (Yayasan Kasih Peduli Anak – YKPA)

YKPA is dedicated to helping Bali’s street children by providing a safe home, education, and a fresh start. For those still living on the streets, YKPA offers reading and math classes on the beach, giving them the opportunity to learn and build a better future.

Beyond education, the foundation also works on AIDS and abuse prevention, helping young girls avoid prostitution and providing teenagers with alternative opportunities so their younger siblings don’t have to beg.

YKPA relies on donations to continue its life-changing work, and many more children need help. As a non-profit, non-denominational organization, every contribution makes a difference.

Sourcing Bali proudly supports YKPA to help cover the costs of caring for these children. If you’d like to assist, please reach out to:

Michael Pate (Director) or Putu Etiartini – etiartini@gmail.com

Your support is truly needed and deeply appreciated!

Panti Sosial Tresna Werdha Wana Seraya

Since 2014, we have been supporting Panti Sosial Tresna Werdha Wana Seraya, a government-run elderly home in Sanur. While the facility receives some government aid, many of the residents still lack basic necessities.

Every two months, we deliver $500 worth of essential supplies, including medicines, new clothing, TVs, DVDs, kitchen equipment, and snacks. But beyond material donations, we believe the greatest gift is companionship—sometimes, a simple hand to hold or a kind conversation makes all the difference.

Would you like to help? Donations of pharmacy goods, clothing, or even just your time are always welcome. Let’s bring warmth and dignity to those who need it most.

Get in touch to contribute!
