We always encourage our volunteers to incorporate art, music, sport and other fun activities to make their teaching experience with their students more fun and enjoyable.

    Bali has become a global tourist destination where the knowledge English and technology has become a crucial skill in acquiring employment. With the knowledge and confidence to partake in conversational English with foreigners, the children will have the tools to better enhance theirs and their families future. By learning to speak English well, it gives local families an opportunity to help their families, in a village where it is often difficult to leave the poverty trap.

    Möt din programledare

    Volunteering in Bali is a not-for-profit foundation (Yayasan Widya Sari) which supports the underprivileged children in a small fishing village in Bali, Indonesia. Yayasan Widya Sari provides a refuge for children to learn not only English, but valuable life and cultural skills. The children are exposed to volunteers that help them to open their minds to the world outside their village life, a world they will be more prepared to succeed in.

     Volunteering at our non-profit foundation is a great way to give back to an underprivileged community. Bali's greatest industry is tourism, however many children in the village never get an opportunity to enter this job market because they are not provided with the skills and education to allow them to do so and consequently are left within the village poverty trap. This program provides local children with an opportunity to escape this poverty trap, by providing them with the necessary skills (such as English and Computers), allowing them to becoming more employable. Not only does this help out the children, but it also gives hope to the underprivileged families within the community. 

    Come and enjoy the picturesque Bali where you will help children to learn English and improve their futures. Immerse yourself within the warm and welcoming community and get to know lots about the vibrant and diverse Balinese culture!
