The Local Focus category delivers location-based reporting from the specific villages and districts where Fair Future Foundation operates in ultra-rural Indonesia. Articles link field data, clinical observations, and program results to real geographic conditions, highlighting how access, infrastructure, and isolation shape health risks. This category documents the implementation of primary medical care, water access, and prevention activities, enabling long-term follow-up and measurable analysis, village by village.
Our 2023 accounts have received official approval from the Board, our auditor, the Canton, and the Swiss Confederation for the 15th year in a row. More than 93% of donations are allocated directly to fieldwork. With no salaries and minimal administrative costs, we maintain a unique approach. Thank you for your trust!
The Primary Medical Care program focuses on disseminating medical guidance. We offer straightforward, practical advice to Kawan Sehat agents, who then relay it to rural communities. Now, we’re also sharing this information on Instagram (@fairfuturefoundation) and our website. These tips have the potential to save lives—help us spread the word!
Last week, the pump for our Mbinudita Water Connections project experienced a failure due to an electrical short circuit. We responded promptly by repairing the issue and installing a backup pump to maintain water supply continuity. Providing access to water is essential, and ensuring it reaches the community is our highest priority.
2024 units SolarBuddy lights are leaving from Canberra, Australia! 2000 children’s lights and 24 larger ones for schools will arrive in Surabaya within a month. We are preparing the customs documents and will use our Truck and Roll to pick them up. This vast operation will bring light to nearly 2500 people, transforming their lives
We’ve invested in a new scooter for Erwin, our Primary Medical Care field coordinator. This off-road-capable scooter will help Erwin reach even the most remote Kawan Sehat health agents to deliver and restock medical supplies. It’s a small investment of 1,000 Swiss francs, but one that will undoubtedly save lives.
In ultra-rural villages lacking electricity, SolarBuddy lamps provided by Fair Future and Rotary illuminate kitchens and pathways at night. During the day, these lamps recharge when hung on trees or fences, preparing to light up homes and paths in the evening. This straightforward solution brings safety and brightness to families who need it most.
Supporting us is simple! You can contribute supplies at locations in Sumba, Denpasar, or Switzerland. We’re in need of educational materials, medical supplies, polio and malaria diagnostic tests, solar panels, construction tools, clothing items for children as well as books and bedding. Your donations will directly aid our ongoing programs. We appreciate your help!
Polio is making a comeback in Indonesia, particularly in the areas where we operate. This outbreak is connected to inadequate hygiene practices, insufficient sanitation, and restricted access to clean water. With limited resources, we are vigorously combating it by launching prevention campaigns and enhancing water access as well as sanitation facilities to safeguard vulnerable communities.
The daily case load managed by Kawan Sehat health agents through the #PrimaryMedicalCare program is truly remarkable. Each day, they deliver crucial first aid services, saving lives and enhancing health for individuals who lack access to basic care. Visit our photo gallery to see the extraordinary efforts of these women and the foundation at work on site.
Introducing our new logistics truck, the “Truck n’Load,” equipped with a 1,000-liter water tank to deliver clean water to remote villages. Tomorrow, we begin applying decals illustrating our efforts to provide water and sanitation. Alex will collect the truck in Surabaya next week—an incredible addition to our foundation!
As previously stated, Fair Future has ceased the drilling project after nine months of extensive efforts. Over the last three weeks, our focus has shifted to an alternative solution: constructing a 100m³ underground rainwater reservoir to supply clean water to a community in urgent need. Project plans and cost estimates are attached for your review.
We have distributed our healthy living posters to local Puskesmas (health centers), and their directors were delighted. The posters are engaging and easy to comprehend, incorporating local characters and language. Teaching rural communities simple methods for disease prevention, such as handwashing, is truly rewarding.
