Thank You 2025…
Dozens of ultra-rural villages visited each month
Illness often begins long before someone arrives at the hospital. Our campaigns on smoking, waste management, alcohol, and sexual health display straightforward messages across schools and village walls in local languages. Through simple posters, talks, and games, we help protect thousands of children.

The Fair Future Foundation is unwavering in its dedication to providing primary medical care, treatment, and disease prevention to strengthen the health and well-being of families, women, and children in vulnerable communities. Through unwavering, sustainable approaches and a relentless focus on clean water, nutrition, and accessible healthcare, we are resolutely committed to creating healthier, more resilient futures for all.
The Health & Medicine category of Fair Future Foundation focuses on bringing essential medical care and health education to ultra-rural Indonesia. We share stories of how our teams work tirelessly to treat illnesses, prevent infectious diseases, and improve community health. These articles highlight the importance of access to healthcare in remote areas and show how medical programs save lives and build healthier futures for those who need it most.
Let’s do it together and hold hands to reach the moon. Ensure that the primary medical care program for children can continue as the needs are enormous here in eastern Indonesia. Malaria is ravaging, expectations are high, and we lack the means to buy medical equipment, medicines and everything they all need to get better…
Malaria is one of the most severe public health problems in the world. Here in Indonesia, and especially in the eastern regions, it is one of the leading causes of death and disease. Children under five years old and pregnant women are the most affected groups. The problem in East Sumba is the staggering rate of cases affecting families and the anti-malaria drugs that are unavailable or too expensive.
Eight billion people on earth: Are we going to starve? On the one hand, there is population growth. On the other, the world’s resources make it possible to feed human beings. How to reconcile the two? Today and tomorrow, will we all be able to provide for ourselves?
As part of the project for access to primary medical care for children in rural areas of eastern Indonesia, the foundation needs you to balance its budget. We want to be able to load our medical truck as much as possible in order to reduce logistics costs. They will carry more than a ton of medical equipment, medicines, sterile equipment, and first-aid materials.
In these few images taken at the end of October 2022, in a village in East Sumba, more than a hundred people have access to this unique water source. A well was dug by hand more than ten years ago and is almost always dry. People have to queue to get a few litres of water that is totally unfit for consumption and dangerous to their health.
We do not stop; the teams of Fair Future and Kawan Baik foundations have already built, as part of the #waterconnections project, site of #mbinudita #sdmbinudita, more than thirty (30) tanks of more than 6000 litres, six ( 6) complete sanitary facilities including two toilets, showers, laundry washing and water collection point. More than 10,000 meters of PVC pipes have been buried, connecting all these installations. We still have a lot of work to do. It’s intense activity.
In rural villages in eastern Indonesia, where we work, toilets are very rare. This is particularly a problem in rural areas where a third of the population must continually defecate in the open air. For Bapak Rinto, it is a relief and a great pride that his family finally has a toilet, thanks to the support of Fair Future and Kawan Baik Indonesia.
In these few images, the teams of Kawan Baik Indonesia and Fair Future Foundation, with the help of volunteers from the village, are building two new Ferro-cement tanks of more than 6000 litres, which in a few weeks will provide clean water to a group of houses. In all, a good thirty families here in the village of #Mbinudita, where our #sdmbinudita school is located.
We are in the process of completing new clean water tanks and new sanitation facilities in Mbinudita. Our teams are on-site with the help of the entire local community, women, men and children who help us in this work. These infrastructures are made of Ferro-cement, like all the others, with the difference that we give the possibility to the villagers to choose the type of construction. Once again, this type of collaboration works wonders on site because it allows everyone to learn and work.
The inhabitants of rural villages do not have access to primary care, and most medical centres are often several hours away on foot. The harshness of life here means we often get hurt, but nothing is available to treat ourselves—no doctor, knowledge, medical equipment and, of course, no antiseptic or medicine. These injuries can lead to the death of a child or an adult if they get worse. We must therefore act quickly. Fair Future, for years, has empowered schools and families in ultra-rural communities to take action in the event of an accident. Today, we are taking another step in this program.
The Benefits of Clean Water Influence the Daily Lives of Children and Adults and Impact the Quality of Life in a Community for Generations to Come. Fair Future sees a change in the habits of families who benefit from the Water Connections program. Without drilling deep wells here, families will not be able to access clean water and will have to continue walking for miles and hours to fetch dirty, unsanitary water. Most of the time, women and children are assigned to this exhausting task. Access to better health has always been the foundation’s primary mission, and healing people simply by giving them water is incredible for us. It is the only possible solution.
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.
