The idea for this project started in the garage of one of our founder, who, during the last three years provided soup , rice, fruit, juice and milk to approximatelly 30 of the local children. Bahasa English was also taught once a week to the same children and some adults.

A very special meeting took place on June 24th at Kampung Kids. Three students from the Faculty of Public Health of the University of Indonesia (UI) visited the "blue house" to have a friendly chat with the oldest kids. These students, Eli Fitriari, Pristy Septia and Ellisa Hanna, are being sponsored by the Spanish Speaking Association (also a sponsor of Kampung Kids) to be able to study at the university.
