Good morning from Mbinudita, East Sumba to everyone,
It's an other bright day here, and we are working to make the school of #RebuildMbinuDita ready as soon as possible for the children's here.
Look at this beautiful school! Today we are waiting out architects, they are on their way from Bali, they will arrive around 5pm today on site here. Click and Dina from #archimetriz will give us some advices and help for the finition. We need to install electricity, rain water collection system and to move the huge orange 5'500 liter thank from it's temporary location the the definitive one.
Then, if raining, people from here will have some water. About the water, here, people are really struggling. No rain season, no water or very very few. Not enough to ensure an healthy life. This is actually the main topic when we talk with them: Water!
If anyone Is ready to help us, you're more than welcome. It's a survival question for the inhabitants of rurals areas of East Sumba. Water for life yes. Bit no water=No life.
Thank you for your time, your benevolence and interest.
...here we are, we still have things to do, time is running out. But imagine that this #RebuildMbinuDita project and the entire construction was carried out during this time of COVID-19 Pandemic. Also imagine that on August 15 2020, there was nothing here, just ruins! Imagine also and it is a touch of humor that sums up the following... that building this school here, it was for us like going to the Moon, a dream but nevertheless unimaginable and infeasible. But we did ... We "went to the moon!" And what's more, we're working on it now!
The dream became true for hundreds of little kids ages from 8 to 10! Their new School is almost rebuilt, after almost 3 months of full work on-site, there in East Sumba.
Look at how it's great and beautiful! An extraordinary human adventure, to be honest with you.
It was necessary to find the physical, moral, psychic resources also to go to the end of this marvellous realization in favour of the children and of all the community of this region masterfully poor.
Sumba is not easy, the needs are huge in terms of everything and we are here doing things simply but doing them ourselves thanks to all of you, having joy, happiness and passion. Because we know you with us all 24 hours a day here at #MbinuDita.
This project is not yet finished as there is still lots of needs you know, then you can help us here if you want to support the Fair Future Foundation and Kawan Baik Indonesia to install more solar panels for example, to plants some three's, to buy school furniture for the kids there or starting a beautiful garden to help people there to have a bit more food.
Speechless! Hard to believe that less than two months ago, it was almost nothing here on the top of this hill here in East Sumba. It took us all, including the people of the region, to imagine, create, find solutions, make compromises… To get there today!
Hard to believe that less than two months ago, he had nothing here on the top of this hill here in East Sumba and look now! It’s for all of us unbelievable!
Here are some new photos of the construction dear friends. As you can see this is progressing well, but also relatively quickly given the remoteness and immense logistical issues we face with huge smiles every day! Some info on the "sudden death" of our 8'000W generator, an essential unit for us here!

See what we can do when we’re all together! For each problem, there is a solution. Live picts from the #RebuildMbunuDita construction site here in East Sumba
A News from Kawan Elisa Wettstein, board member of the Swiss Fair Future Foundation. Elisa tells us about her stay on the #RebuildMbinuDita site in East-Sumba.
For two months now, we have been on-site living the day-to-day construction of the #RebuildMbinuDita school. As you can see, this school is quite amazing in its style unlike any other school in Sumba, if not even in Indonesia. The frame is made of steel, made up of hundreds of steel beams, thousands of screws and bolts.
This makes it flexible and resistant to earthquakes, storms and other natural disasters. 95% of the materials used were ordered from Java, more than 2,500 kilometres from MbinuDita. Most everything was shipped by container, using the sea route, two weeks journey from Surabaya to MbinuDita.
Live from the #RebuildMbinuDita site in East-Sumba, here are some photos of the construction of the school for children and the rural community of the region.
What is amazing about this #RebuildMbinuDita adventure is how children are involved every day working, to rebuild their future school.
Before, the school that collapsed was a bit like "the center of their world" you know! Those who live there in one of the most rural areas that can be found, school is simply "everything" for them! Really!
This short sequence shows the daughter of one of the #RebuildMbinuDita teachers. Her name is Mirna, she is 3 years old!
She and her mom are here with us almost every day of the week to help: Cooking for all of us, digging or moving rocks, bring tools, make coffee, bring water for cement talking and laughing all the time too etc... All these kids are incredible!
It's magic you know, I have never seen children who build their own school. It is like a game for them, it is also simply the absolute desire to take advantage of this unique place that will be the future school that the foundations (Fair Future Foundation and Kawan Baik Indonesia) are offering and building in this very poor region of East-Sumba.
There, far from everything, where water, food and electricity are in short supply, too rare indeed!
Yesterday October 7, 2020, trucks came from Waingapu to deliver the equipment that we ordered from Surabaya (equipment that arrived the day before by a 100% filled container), in order to continue the construction of the #RebuildMbinuDita school. We joined the truck that was on the way to the project site with our drone, then followed it for a few minutes.
The foundation ordered more than 60 tonnes of material from Surabaya, which arrives by container after a few days of sea travel. Then an hour's journey by truck from Waingapu, to finally arrive on the #RebuildMbinuDita site. Logistically speaking, it is a very complex affair, it is an euphemism to say so!
Ambon, Arifin, Agus and Arif are coming from Surabaya (East-Java) to help the foundation to build the school, which we no longer have to name (#RebuildMbinuDita). Today, these four incredible Man share with us their perspective of this unique experience.
Without these four souls, we would not be where we are today, one month before the inauguration.
Ambon, Arifin, Agus and Arif. Coming from Surabaya to help us build this school. Today, they shared with us their perspective of this unique experience.
Good morning from East Sumba, form the #RebuildMbinuDita site,
How are you today? Its a bright morning isn't? We are on our way to the commercial port of Waingapu where we will receive and unload a full container of construction material for the new school of #RebuildMbinuDita.
We have to unload everything by hand because the container cannot go to the site in MbinuDita. Impossible, because there is no road made for it. So, from the container, in three trucks. It's not easy, but we have no choice.
Here are some photos taken yesterday October 5, 2020 from the #RebuildMbinuDita site. The work is progressing well as you can see.
There you go, your encouragement is our hot and sweet chocolate in the morning, so don't hesitate to share, comment. This is also how you can help us directly.
During the #RebuildMbinuDita , Kawan kawan from the @fairfuturefoundation and @kawanbaikindonesia live here. It's our temporary house made with the ruin's of the olds #SDMbinuDita school here in East Sumba.
We have everything or almost and it's so quiet as we are really super far from everything.
We call it "Mbinudita Indah", means "Pretty Mbinudita". This is our 7stars hotel.
Picture taken last night on the school rebuilding site in East Sumba. Working late to be ready for beginning of November. It's so important for the community here, and of course for all kids who need to back to school.
A huge project for us, very complicated logistically as we have no water, no electricity here. For electrical power, we use a 2000 Watt generator and for water, we have to order 5000 liter's every 3 days. Access road is also not simple, simply as their is no road! Just stone path, dust and the little asphalt that there was practically no longer exists at all.
At night we are working until 10 because it's so hot during the day, and the strong wind makes us totally dry. It's a so beautiful project, so useful also for hundreds of kids from Mbinudita. Just wonderful and we are all so glad to help this incredibly brave and good people here
We plan to finish the #rebuildmbinudita project at the end of October, beginning of November. To achieve this goal, all of us have to be there everyday. By the way, If you're interested to see the location of #RebuildMbinuDita click here:: maps.app.goo.gl/kf2yyG5KQcHpj7Ae6
Three is many way to help this kids and the entire community. We need water to build and to live on site, we need electricity and we need tools. Food for the dozens of locals volunteers how are on site to help us, or to cook for all of us. Energy, healthy food, drink enough, security and delay to terminate the project are our main priorities. Happiness to rebuild MbinuDita is the cherry on the top!
Hello Kawan's, how are you today? A bright and hot hello from Sumba from all of us to all of you,
This is Yaspan from #RebuildMbinuDita site here in East-Sumba. Yesterday, as every 3 days, we received 500 liters water for to build the school, but also to cook, to take shower etc... We all know how water is important right? The foundation needs water, a lot of water because we are a lot to live for several months there, in the middle of the hills very far from everything.
Yaspan and all the families of #Mbinudita suffer greatly from the lack of water. No one here has access to it, or at the cost of several hours of walking, sometimes on foot, sometimes on the backs of buffaloes.
So for him, even 5,000 liters that come out like that from this all-blue pipe, it's like a magic trick!
Happy to write you form the building site here in East Sumba. So, we came back at noon today to #RebuildMbinuDita site, after 2 days in Waingapu, the biggest town of East Sumba, where we were to buy materials, deal to solve some logistical issues and meet the head leader Sumba (Bupati or Governor), which is so helpful for us (thank you Pak Bupati🙏, from the bottom of our heart. Meeting you was really nice.
So far, so good! It's really super mega hot over here during the day, over 40˚ in the shade. We had to buy lots of goods to continue building the school, then bring them to the construction site, which is no easy task, believe us!
We're pleased to show you the work in progress (and people at work), through these few pictures taken from the sky.
It's an incredible job for all of us to organise this challenged project as we are so far from everything, lost in the middle of thousands of hills. For each problem, there is a solution and we apply it with great happiness. Happy also to receive help from the community of Mbinudita here in East Sumba, all kids and teachers who are helping us to rebuild their own school. Have you ever seen this? Us not!
Now it's late here, we are doing a small meeting then we will go to sleep in the little house made with lots of things...
Since September 24th, 2020, Fair Future Foundation and Kawan Baik Indonesia are back on the construction site of the new school. We use a hashtag to quote it: #RebuildMbinuDita.
Kawan Andri, Kawan Ayu, Kawan Nofi, Kawan Optimus, Kawan Alex and all the others who are at -so that the children of this very poor region of East Sumba, can return to school next November-, are working so hard, incredibly hard!
We wrote and post for you a long News and many incredible pictures taken from the sky on the #RebuildMbinuDita project site, over there on the top of the hill!
Have a nice time, see you soon and thank you for your support, we need you, really!
They are some of the kids for whom we are rebuilding MbinuDita. And you know what? They are also those who rebuild their own school. They work so hard with us. And this is something unique!
Hello Kawan's, A warm hello from #RebuildMbinudita construction site in Sumba East. People who want to help can contact us with great pleasure. Lots of work to do, lots of needs also. Thank you and see you soon.
"-Where in the world do children build their own schools?".
My name is Yaspan, I am 12 years old and I was born in the village of #RebuildMbinuDita in Sumba East, where the foundation is rebuilding my school and will bring life back to the village.
I want to tell you a story about my new school. I actually built it with my friends and people from Swiss and Kawan Baik Indonesia, this is my story!
A 2nd little film made a few minutes ago, from the #RebuildMbinudita site in Sumba East with the Foundation Drone.
You know, #RebuildMbinuDita is the ULTIMATE adventure! It is impossible to imagine the logistical problems that we have to face. We're not a big foundation, we just do it with the heart.
And it's when you believe it's impossible, that you won't be able to bring tens of tons of material to the top of a hill, in the middle of nowhere, where no road goes, that things happen, it's the brain, it's the mind! This is the strength that we all have inside us! The strength of despair!
So we take our time, we rest for two minutes, we take a deep breath and we start! And then, like a miracle, everything arrives at the top of the hill, itself surrounded by the fires of dry grass!
Thanks for supporting us, they need all of you in an incredible way (and so do we).
A little film made a few minutes ago, from the #RebuildMbinudita site in Sumba East with the Foundation Drone.
The conditions are difficult, but the heart is at work. Hours of travel, logistics are a real headache, water is more than 5,000 liters that we have delivered every 3 days. Build a revolutionary building, a school, toilets, a center of life without electricity, without water! In the wind, the extreme heat, the bush fires ... It makes you strong, it also tiresome! But the more difficult it is, the more solutions are found. And believe us, it makes you incredibly happy!
Thanks for supporting us, they need all of you in an incredible way (and so do we).
Some news of the fires that annoy us a lot in the context of the construction of #RebuildMbinuDita. As we wrote to you a few weeks ago, the dry grass and fires have been raging for more than a month and the inhabitants of the district of "Nggaha Ori Angu", that is where we are building the new school of #RebuildMbinuDita, and we have to fight fires incessantly and relentlessly!
A warm Hello from East Sumba, on the #RebuildMbinuDita website. Hot, cold ... Hungry, thirsty! Tired but happy.
Glad to know that if all goes well, the foundation will offer a brand new school to future generations of kids in the MbinuDita area of East Sumba. "-Coming together is a beginning, staying together is progress, and working together is success.". Henry Ford.
Informations, how to help, videos, pictures and testimonies.
Today we will post again many informations about this huge project. Not huge in terms of cost, but huge in terms of logistics. A press release will be published today, be ready guy's.
The school we are taking care of in Sumba, was totally destroyed by a storm. We will rebuild it, as 50 kids from this remote area, don’t have school anymore! Thank you!
Last week, we took some photos with the foundation drone on the #RebuildMbinuDita site. As you can see, the work for the foundations is progressing well despite the immense constraints we are experiencing (Weather, security, hygiene, travel, logistics and psychological too...). We are hard at work on site to finish school in November 2020.
You can help us friends, we really need all of you.
How are you this Monday? We are happy to let you know that the first container of construction materials for #RebuildMbinuDita has arrived in Sumba after more than ten days by road, by sea... Read more here.

Good morning from East Sumba, form the #RebuildMbinuDita site,
How are you today? Its a bright morning isn't? We are on our way to the commercial port of Waingapu where we will receive and unload a full container of construction material for the new school of #RebuildMbinuDita.
We have to unload everything by hand because the container cannot go to the site in MbinuDita. Impossible, because there is no road made for it. So, from the container, in three trucks. It's not easy, but we have no choice.
Here are some photos taken yesterday October 5, 2020 from the #RebuildMbinuDita site. The work is progressing well as you can see.
There you go, your encouragement is our hot and sweet chocolate in the morning, so don't hesitate to share, comment. This is also how you can help us directly.
Lots of beautiful things to you all.

We have everything or almost and it's so quiet as we are really super far from everything.
We call it "Mbinudita Indah", means "Pretty Mbinudita". This is our 7stars hotel.

Hi wan's, how's life today?
We are #RebuildMbinuDita you know?
Picture taken last night on the school rebuilding site in East Sumba. Working late to be ready for beginning of November. It's so important for the community here, and of course for all kids who need to back to school.
A huge project for us, very complicated logistically as we have no water, no electricity here. For electrical power, we use a 2000 Watt generator and for water, we have to order 5000 liter's every 3 days. Access road is also not simple, simply as their is no road! Just stone path, dust and the little asphalt that there was practically no longer exists at all.
At night we are working until 10 because it's so hot during the day, and the strong wind makes us totally dry. It's a so beautiful project, so useful also for hundreds of kids from Mbinudita. Just wonderful and we are all so glad to help this incredibly brave and good people here
We plan to finish the #rebuildmbinudita project at the end of October, beginning of November. To achieve this goal, all of us have to be there everyday. By the way, If you're interested to see the location of #RebuildMbinuDita click here:: maps.app.goo.gl/kf2yyG5KQcHpj7Ae6
Three is many way to help this kids and the entire community. We need water to build and to live on site, we need electricity and we need tools. Food for the dozens of locals volunteers how are on site to help us, or to cook for all of us. Energy, healthy food, drink enough, security and delay to terminate the project are our main priorities. Happiness to rebuild MbinuDita is the cherry on the top!
Thank you so much and see you soon here

Hello Kawan's, how are you today? A bright and hot hello from Sumba from all of us to all of you,
This is Yaspan from #RebuildMbinuDita site here in East-Sumba. Yesterday, as every 3 days, we received 500 liters water for to build the school, but also to cook, to take shower etc...
We all know how water is important right? The foundation needs water, a lot of water because we are a lot to live for several months there, in the middle of the hills very far from everything.
Yaspan and all the families of #Mbinudita suffer greatly from the lack of water. No one here has access to it, or at the cost of several hours of walking, sometimes on foot, sometimes on the backs of buffaloes.
So for him, even 5,000 liters that come out like that from this all-blue pipe, it's like a magic trick!
If you want help people of #RebuildMbinuDita, you can make a donation here: actionforfairfuture.org/new-school/
Thank you so much people for your support. Much love to all of you.

Good evening Kawan's, how are you today?
Happy to write you form the building site here in East Sumba. So, we came back at noon today to #RebuildMbinuDita site, after 2 days in Waingapu, the biggest town of East Sumba, where we were to buy materials, deal to solve some logistical issues and meet the head leader Sumba (Bupati or Governor), which is so helpful for us (thank you Pak Bupati🙏, from the bottom of our heart. Meeting you was really nice.
So far, so good! It's really super mega hot over here during the day, over 40˚ in the shade. We had to buy lots of goods to continue building the school, then bring them to the construction site, which is no easy task, believe us!
We're pleased to show you the work in progress (and people at work), through these few pictures taken from the sky.
It's an incredible job for all of us to organise this challenged project as we are so far from everything, lost in the middle of thousands of hills. For each problem, there is a solution and we apply it with great happiness. Happy also to receive help from the community of Mbinudita here in East Sumba, all kids and teachers who are helping us to rebuild their own school. Have you ever seen this? Us not!
Now it's late here, we are doing a small meeting then we will go to sleep in the little house made with lots of things...
Thank you so much.

Hello Kawans,
"-Where in the world do children build their own schools?".
My name is Yaspan, I am 12 years old and I was born in the village of #RebuildMbinuDita in Sumba East, where the foundation is rebuilding my school and will bring life back to the village.
I want to tell you a story about my new school. I actually built it with my friends and people from Swiss and Kawan Baik Indonesia, this is my story!

A 2nd little film made a few minutes ago, from the #RebuildMbinudita site in Sumba East with the Foundation Drone.
You know, #RebuildMbinuDita is the ULTIMATE adventure! It is impossible to imagine the logistical problems that we have to face. We're not a big foundation, we just do it with the heart.
And it's when you believe it's impossible, that you won't be able to bring tens of tons of material to the top of a hill, in the middle of nowhere, where no road goes, that things happen, it's the brain, it's the mind! This is the strength that we all have inside us! The strength of despair!
So we take our time, we rest for two minutes, we take a deep breath and we start! And then, like a miracle, everything arrives at the top of the hill, itself surrounded by the fires of dry grass!
Thanks for supporting us, they need all of you in an incredible way (and so do we).

The conditions are difficult, but the heart is at work. Hours of travel, logistics are a real headache, water is more than 5,000 liters that we have delivered every 3 days. Build a revolutionary building, a school, toilets, a center of life without electricity, without water! In the wind, the extreme heat, the bush fires ... It makes you strong, it also tiresome! But the more difficult it is, the more solutions are found. And believe us, it makes you incredibly happy!
Thanks for supporting us, they need all of you in an incredible way (and so do we).

Last week, we took some photos with the foundation drone on the #RebuildMbinuDita site. As you can see, the work for the foundations is progressing well despite the immense constraints we are experiencing (Weather, security, hygiene, travel, logistics and psychological too...). We are hard at work on site to finish school in November 2020.
You can help us friends, we really need all of you.
