The board of Kolewa looked back to a very successful 2016 during their meeting, for example: the renovation of Ruma Bicara made it possible to help more children. Furthermore, we successfully raised money for the school project for deaf children and gave them access to education/. But also the outreaches and the family gatherings at Bali Zoo… there was a lot to be proud of and so we were.
Moreover, Kolewa welcomed a variety of new donors who will support us on a regular base. Also many actions were taken so that a lot of people got to know the work of Kolewa. This resulted in the fact that the Kolewa Facebook account received more followers. Another result is the hard work that was done by the promotion team and especially by Zin in Webdesign. They realized the new website kolewa.com that was aired since the beginning of 2017.
Last but not least, we worked together with a diverse group of volunteers and interns who all positively contributed to the goals of Kolewa in their own way. Also the regular Indonesian staff of Kolewa has a lot of potential and is developing very nicely in becoming more independent.
In conclusion, it was a busy and intense year with a lot of achievements. 2017 will be the year of consolidation. Taking care to maintain the current projects will ask our constant attention, especially in providing enough financial support. Of course we will stay dedicated! Hopefully also with your help?
