Hello, my name is Alexandre WettsteinThe Fair Future Foundation in East Indonesia is dedicated to eradicating social and medical injustices by ensuring access to healthcare, clean water, and education for all.
Few days on the field for Surgeries and Medical Care in East Sumba
The 2nd sanitary facility of the village is almost finished
Although access to clean water continues to be a problem, it isn’t easy to ensure it is safe. In this sense, Fair Future is putting in place measures to ensure that it is sustainable. By tests, of course, filtration systems that use elements present in nature. But also, and above all, the education of users on “how to keep the installation clean and in optimal working order” is part of the “water Connections” program. On the other hand, it should be noted that individual practices also play an essential role in determining the quality of the water that we make available to the villagers here in East Sumba.

We create water connections, look…
The first idea was to treat people at the source of their health problems because our medical teams and us allow the expression: “-We were a little tired of giving medicine with a glass of inedible water. …”. And as we have told you many times before, the vast majority of patients who come to us are primarily because of the poor quality of the water they use. But also because they simply don’t have enough or no water.

Water connections program, the beginning of the adventure
The 1st toilets of the village are almost finished
Sanitary facilities, showers, toilets, a wastewater collection tank… This was a pilot project for the foundation. Today it is something normal. How do we build healthy, ecological, environmentally friendly sanitary facilities using mainly local materials (apart from sand, iron and cement)? How not to waste the water we found by drilling so deep here in Mbinudita? Where had drilling never been attempted? How to reuse wastewater to be able to water the gardens, the plants, and the vegetables that do so much good to and improve the lives of everyone here? It was a challenge, but it is now a reality.

Why does Fair Future need a used truck in East Sumba?
We need a 2nd truck
Linked among others to the Deep Well Drilling program (Water Connections), we need to acquire a small second-hand truck, to transport our drilling machine to the sites from our base camp in Sumba East. But also all building materials (sand, cement, bricks, scrap metal etc…). At the moment, we cannot do this ourselves and have to resort to renting a truck. It costs too much and handicaps us a great deal. We are appealing to your big heart, friends. Thanks in advance for your help.
Assist with access to clean water in Praiwora
As part of the #waterconnections project, the Fair Future and Kawan Baik foundations have received several requests for help related to socio-medical projects, including a significant number related to access to clean water from local communities and rural villages. Some of these requests come to us directly from local authorities in East Sumba. For this Kambajawa – Praiwora project, Fair Future received this request now from our friend, the Regent of East Sumba, Mr Khristofel Praing. Kawan Khris asked us to see what we could do to help this village and these families in Praiwora who have not had access to water for almost five years.
