waste recycling project

Bali, Indonesia's primary tourist destination faces an escalating waste problem. In the formerly pristine environment, waste is now disposed randomly in rivers, canals and roadside or wherever it becomes redundant. The waste problem in Bali, like elsewhere in Indonesia needs to be urgently addressed with solutions that are environmentally friendly and economically viable. ...more about the waste recycling project

schools projects

Wide public education in Indonesia has been under development for less than 60 years and has been consistently under funded. The club is working with 44 elementary schools to provide safe physical environments, school supplies, teaching material and classroom furniture.

aceh clinic project

RC of Bali Ubud supports Yayasan Bumi Sehat in the tsunami-ravaged area of Aceh in INdonesia. This NGO is available 24 hours for emergency service. Their daily clinic patients include those suffering from skin conditions, coughs (sometimes TB), minor illnesses, tropical diseases (exacerbated by poverty) ie. malaria, dengue, leprosy, and trauma patients from burns and motorbike accidents.

Daily they offer prenatal care. Birth services 24 hrs, postpartum care and breastfeeding support. Due to malnutrition there is a grave risk of maternal and infant death.

Rotary Club of Bali Ubud has sponsored the building of a fully equipped maternal and child health clinic with funds received from “The Rotary Solidarity Fund in South Asia”, BAYAR through INDOGERM and the RC Bali Ubud Tsunami Fund.

This clinic building is earthquake resistant, with waste water gardens for the effluent, and an independent energy supply (there is still no electricity in our region of Aceh). This clinic is a turn key clinic, and when completed will include furnishings and medical equipment.
