Hi I’m Niluh. I was born and raised in Bali. Now I work as an accountant, but funnily enough, my hobbies are nowhere close to dealing boring numbers. My hobbies include gardening and shopping at traditional markets. I am very happy to see fresh vegetables, fruits, and flowers in these markets and I also find the transactions and exchanges very fascinating.

Other than that, I enjoy embroidery and knitting, so much that I dedicated an instagram account for these hobbies called @mimpiby.niluh. This account is not only an instagram account for my passion in embroidery and knitting, but also for other little things that I’ve always wanted to do. I hope that these little things that make me happy can be useful for others and make them happy too. Cheers!

Alex Wettstein is the CEO, Founder, President and Head of Field Medical Operations at the Fair Future Foundation. In 2008, he founded the organization after witnessing the devastating impact of inadequate healthcare in ultra-rural areas of Indonesia. With over 25 years of experience in humanitarian and socio-medical work, Alex has led transformative projects in some of the most remote and underserved regions, particularly in East Sumba.

His leadership extends beyond administration; Alex is deeply involved in the foundation’s field activities, from managing medical operations to coordinating access to clean water through initiatives such as the Water Connections, the Zero Malaria and Primary Medical Care program. He works directly with local communities, living alongside them to better understand their needs and provide sustainable solutions.

My name is Primus, a native of Sumba, living on East Sumba Island. I was born and raised here, and my life has always been deeply connected to the land and its people. My journey into social work began in 2013 when I joined the Sispala organization, a group of nature lovers involved in school-based social activities. This experience fostered my passion for helping others and sparked my involvement in community service. In 2019, I joined the Sumba volunteer community, participating in social activities that focused on supporting those in need, especially in terms of economic empowerment and education.

Joining the foundation has allowed me to put my ideas into action, allowing me to share my thoughts and opinions to improve the lives of others. I believe in the importance of changing the mindset of rural communities, especially regarding education for the next generation. I love spending time travelling through villages, learning from people, and understanding the challenges they face. My goal is to share my knowledge—whether it’s about building, electrical installation, or life skills—with as many people as possible, helping uplift the communities I care about.

I dream of a future where rural people have the same opportunities as those in cities, with access to quality education, healthcare, clean water, electricity, and communication networks. I come from a simple family with six siblings, bound together by extraordinary love, and this foundation has always driven me to work toward creating better conditions for the people of Sumba.

Hello, my name is Wahyu and I’m from Yogyakarta, on the island of Java. I crossed the strait to the island of Bali, initially planning to stay for only a short while.

As an illustrator with a major in Animation, I draw inspiration from various sources such as stories from my experiences, surroundings, or from others. I have a deep admiration for films, video games, history, mythology, and anything related to ancient times.

In the Fair Future Foundation, I’m working in Communication and Content Creation. In contrast, as a team, we will create content as a media for giving information, communication, education, and gathering funds to help with the programs of the Fair Future Foundation. It’s similar to telling stories, I will try my best to deliver that in any way possible.
