The program in detail:

​

We are in the southern hemisphere, where “Bintang Kidul” is the Southern Star, it is the equivalent of our Northern Star…giving an extremely poor population joy, better health, hope for a better life.

Nata (19, did not finish secondary school) works at Decathlon; Sandi (20, has her secondary school certificate) is a barista in a restaurant, Akhmad (21, secondary school) is an organic farmer. They were all born on a filthy dump in Jakarta. Others are at university, and others can, thanks to the Programme, continue their education. It is expensive and they are often malnourished, their parents are garbage collectors or do small day jobs, for the luckiest. They are the young people in great poverty in urban areas. And then, there is rural poverty, it is everywhere, in all the small villages of Indonesia.

What do we offer all these young people from 5 to 22 years old? Scholarships, Youth Centers, with free activities, libraries and toy libraries, dance classes, music, martial arts, English, homework help, permaculture, ... but also a lot of badminton through structured and regular training that can lead them to our professional team that defends the colors of the Bintang Solibad Indonesia club on the National Circuit. They will become international champions or coaches, a dream ... achievable thanks to your help.
