Preparing Care…
Nearly 1,000 patients treated per 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.
Fair Future’s mission: to provide basic medical care and treatment in areas with no healthcare infrastructure.
The Truck of Life, essential for reaching rural areas, has undergone major upgrades, including new solar panels, a 75-liter vaccine storage unit, and a redesigned layout, turning it into a mobile clinic. These improvements enhance its ability to provide vital healthcare services, addressing the challenges of accessing medical care in remote areas and managing important resources like the cold chain.
In East Sumba, the simple act of washing hands is more than basic hygiene; it’s a lifesaving gesture. Fair Future Foundation’s latest campaign, ‘Let’s Wash Your Hands,’ marks a significant leap in public health for rural communities. Through the Water Connections program, we’ve installed sinks across schools and villages, ensuring every child can fight against diseases like malaria, polio, and tuberculosis through the power of clean water. This initiative is not just about improving health but fostering a sustainable environment where every child can grow up healthy and strong.
Celebrate with us as we mark 15 years of the Fair Future Foundation’s unyielding commitment to providing essential medical care, clean water, and hope to rural communities in East Sumba. Founded by Alex Wettstein, our dedicated team has been at the forefront of combating infectious diseases, addressing hunger, and improving living conditions for the most vulnerable populations. Together, we can continue to make a meaningful impact and build a brighter future for those in need.

In the news "Picture of the Day," a Kawan Sehat agent stands with assurance and determination. Facing our healthcare teams, she shares her experience as a care agent in her village of Kabanda. Her gaze, filled with resolve, speaks of her firm decision to progress, contribute to her community's evolution, and help as many as she can. An embodiment of empowerment and social transformation, this image captures the spirit of these extraordinary women who, through their training and commitment, are redefining their role in ultra-rural societies and becoming pillars of change and inspiration.
#PrimaryMedicalCare: The Renaissance of Women in Ultra-Rural Societies of Southeast Asia
In the ultra-rural communities of Southeast Asia, a remarkable change is taking place. Thanks to the #PrimaryMedicalCare program by the Fair Future Foundation and Kawan Baik Foundation, over 50 women, primarily teachers, are redefining their societal role. These women, traditionally confined to the roles of child educators and homemakers, are now gaining confidence and autonomy, becoming undeniable pillars of their community.
Their comprehensive medical training has opened previously closed doors, allowing them to take on responsibilities beyond traditional education. By becoming Kawan Sehat health agents, they have acquired essential life-saving skills and achieved a new social status. Their role has transformed from background figures to leading actors in the health and well-being of their villages.
This evolution is significant as it is a model and inspiration for other women in these regions. These health agents now represent the possibility of a fulfilled life, demonstrating that improvement in living conditions and personal achievement is within reach for all. They are breaking traditional barriers and redefining what it means to be a woman in societies previously limited by rigid norms.
Their growing assurance is a living testimony to the positive impact of education and training on women's empowerment. By transforming their status within the community, they are creating a future where women are not just caregivers and educators but also leaders and innovators.
Fair Future Foundation is committed to continuing its support for these modern heroines, recognizing the crucial importance of their role in health care delivery and building a more equitable and inclusive society. Our work with these remarkable women is a step towards a future where every woman can play an active and respected role in her community.

In the secluded areas of Eastern Indonesia, it’s common to see children walking barefoot on muddy paths. This is a clear indication of their determination and hope for a brighter future. However, these children face real risks due to their lack of footwear. Fortunately, Fair Future’s #PrimaryMedicalCare program is providing them with essential medical support and shoes to help them realize their dreams.
