year; as well as the ones we continue supporting, water projects; JFF; Rumah Sehat we need

more and remember they have to be for community not a single person, be ongoing and

sustainable. Fund raising is very hard In Bali so the little funds we have need to be well

clubs! Board members will decide on suggested projects at meetings.
