Hi,
This is the info I got from the fellow here in Perth who co-ordinates fundraising and sponsorship for 2 orpahanges in Bali:
Not knowing if you are a regular Bali visitor, can I recommend, if you do want to go & visit one of the orphanages we assist with your children, that you contact our wonderful Balanise tour driver & assistant who takes many visitors from our Bikabele network to either of the orphanages in KlungKung or Karegasem.
He can also assist you to buy eg Rice or other foodstuffs on the way if you wish to contribute in any way as food shortages are an ongoing problem especially at KlungKung.He will also ring the head carer (Made in KlungKung or Agung at Karangasem) to arrange the visit.
KlungKung is one & a half hours from Kuta area,( so the easiest to visit) , & Karangasem is another hour further on.
Wayan will take you to either as part of a day trip to other locations if you wish.
His name is Wayan & his Bali Mobile No is: (+62) 081 236 08310.
Wayan speaks good English & is a real gentleman whose voluntary support to us in Bali is greatly valued by all of us..
Kind Regards,
