Yayasan Widya Guna - started in 2004 by Gill Rijnenberg & Ketut Sadia, wth their primary goal is to give the children of Bali the opportunity to obtain an education and to break the cycle of poverty. There are total of 86 children funded their education through Yayasan Widya Guna, 19 of them are orphans and the rest are poor children. The children age range between 3 to 17 years old.
Each child has respective foster parent to fund their education fee. Pak Ketut of Widya Guna expects to get the contract of fostering at least until the children pass their high school. Each child has their bank account where their parent transfer the fund directly to them. Each child has a "buku kas" where they record all their expenses to be read by their foster parents. They even have email address and they are communicating to their foster parents atleast once a week updating their development.
Everyday they get English Class and Dance Class. The English class is conducted by some volunteers. The volunteers from overseas will be staying in guest house available at the yayasan.
