  • Designing and maintaining a shelter for Jembatan Senang in Samuh / Candidasa Recruiting and training expert personnel Attracting additional paramedical facilities that are in the interest of the well-being of the children Providing information about the disabilities of the children children to parents and other interested parties.


Fundraising:

The Foundation is completely dependent on donations from third parties. To raise sufficient donations, the following recruitment campaigns are organized:

  1. Ten-Euro Members. These members donate € 10 per month annually. Occasional donations. Where possible, we try, whether or not through third parties, to interest fund-managing bodies such as Rotary clubs, Lions clubs, churches, etc., in making a donation.
    In addition, we receive incidental cash donations from visitors to Jembatan Senang Organizing an annual charity dinner in Candidasa Operating a website and a facebook page


Financial:

  1. Use: Because Jembatan Senang has long-term obligations with regard to the maintenance of a shelter, the provision of adequate material, the financing of the transport of the children and the payment of the salaries of the staff, it is desirable to keep a capital of maximum € 30.000,--.


Management:

  1. The assets are placed in a checking account and a savings account at the KNABBANK in NL. The interest obtained will fully benefit the exploitation of Jembatan Senang.
    Accountability: The board presents annually at the close of the financial year a financial overview, which is published on the website, in accordance with the provisions of the articles of association and the conditions for obtaining ANBI status.


Continuity and future vision:

  1. The coming years will be devoted to maintaining this project
  2. As the expertise of the staff increases, the staff will become more responsible and better able to manage day-to-day affairs, taking into account the individual requirements of each child. Part of this is also determining whether a child can be placed in mainstream education in Bali.
