There are 2 orphanages, one in Klungkung which is up to around 60 kids and then one at Amlapura which has up to around 50 children. All with some form of disability, a lot of them hearing impaired, some have more a mental problem in varying degrees. But yes, beautiful kids. We visit them everytime we go.
That is a beautiful idea what you are thinking of celebrating your birthday by giving happiness to some Balinese children, how awesome are you!! Generally food is their biggest want and need really, though you can always consider toiletries, school stationery and such things.
These children are very used to sharing anything they receive, amazing to watch them actually. They make my trip everytime I visit.
Email "Leanne" through the website if you like, and can correspond some more if you are wanting to do something for these little ones :)
