Water on the Way…
Scientific medical studies underway
Malaria continues to pose a daily threat in this area. Through Kawan Against Malaria, we monitor cases, test all fevers, protect homes, and educate families. The use of bed nets, spraying, and prompt treatment turns statistical data into lives that endure quietly, rather than ending prematurely.
We strive to uphold transparency, communicate clearly, explain thoroughly, assist effectively, and calculate accurately. Your support propels our success. Effective communication is vital in all interactions, irrespective of the person you are communicating with.
The Our Communication category of Fair Future Foundation shares how we connect with partners, donors, and communities in ultra-rural Indonesia. These articles highlight our newsletters, reports, and outreach efforts that build trust, transparency, and collaboration. By keeping everyone informed and involved, we strengthen our mission to improve healthcare, education, and clean water access, making every voice and every story part of the solution.
A shipping delay has pushed back the arrival of 2,224 SolarBuddy lamps in East Sumba by around 15 days. This setback disrupts our plans—but it won’t stop us. We adapt, reschedule, and continue to fight for those without light, electricity, or access to healthcare. We will be ready by June 10th.
This week marks an important step for Fair Future: we’ve officially begun the process of obtaining ZEWO certification, the Swiss quality label for trusted NGOs and foundations.

In Umalulu, nearly all children at a six-class primary school have already had malaria.

Our goal: real, scalable solutions for one of Indonesia’s most affected regions.
In East Sumba, nearly 12,000 students face the challenge of studying without electricity. Through Light Up the Future, Fair Future Foundation is distributing 2,224 solar lamps to over 2,000 children in 24 remote schools, bringing safe, renewable light to improve education, health, and daily life.

For the past three years, Fair Future has been constructing water reservoirs in Laindatang to guarantee access to clean water. However, four remote families continue to face difficulties.

In May 2025, Fair Future is set to construct a water reservoir with a capacity of 110,000 liters in Laindatang, an isolated village grappling with severe drought conditions.
