Revolutionizing Pediatric Care: A Lifeline for Rural Communities.
The Fair Future Foundation is transforming child health in Indonesia’s remotest and most underserved areas. In these regions, children confront the harsh realities of preventable diseases such as diarrhea, tuberculosis, and malaria that claim numerous young lives. Additionally, chronic malnutrition results in stunting among more than 75% of children. Maternal health challenges further compound these problems, perpetuating a cycle of vulnerability that we are committed to ending. Since 2008, we have concentrated on a comprehensive approach to child health by integrating clean water access, primary medical care, and enhanced nutrition. In partnership with Kawan Baik, Sumba Volunteer, and local authorities, we provide sustainable healthcare solutions tailored to the community that tackle the underlying causes of these challenges. Our programs offer vital maternal and child health services alongside important immunizations. By addressing systemic challenges, we go beyond treating illnesses to empower communities to create healthier futures. Fair Future is dedicated to supporting children and families living in extreme isolation. By tackling both urgent health requirements and sustainable solutions, we are nurturing a generation that flourishes with well-being, dignity, and the chance to create a better future. Join us in revolutionizing child healthcare and ensuring brighter prospects for tomorrow.

In April 2025, the Fair Future Foundation launched the Malaria Spread Studies program in East Sumba, with a focus on the ultra-rural village of Umalulu. This region has long struggled with malaria, with nearly 55% of the population recently testing positive. Despite years of endemic presence, little has been done to understand why malaria continues to thrive here.
The Malaria Spread Studies aim to diagnose the real situation before proposing any solutions, just as a doctor would never prescribe medicine without first understanding the illness. For the first time, we are conducting a comprehensive field investigation to map out the factors that fuel malaria transmission.
To carry out this program, we developed a specialised digital tool: the Kawan Against Malaria App ("Good Friends Against Malaria"). This application enables local teams to survey every household in Umalulu by asking 65 targeted questions. The study is based on three key pillars:
This approach is unique in an area where resources are minimal and where little support exists beyond minimal governmental programs. Thanks to collaboration with local authorities, Kawan Baik Indonesia, Rotary International, and Rotary Against Malaria, this study aims to establish a precise understanding that will inform future prevention and treatment actions.
The Malaria Spread Studies are not just about understanding the disease; they are also about preventing its spread. They aim to spread awareness, give communities a voice, provide concrete data for strategic interventions, and create a model that can be replicated across other malaria-endemic regions.
