International Doorways Students Find the Yayasan

This summer, a group of seven teenage students sponsored by International Doorways (please check their website for more information on this wonderful group at www.internationaldoorways.com) spent a month in Bali with group leaders, Scott Mandell and Joe Mong. Much of their time was spent enjoying all of the natural beauty that Bali has to offer. They enjoyed the same things as teenagers all over, swimming, snorkeling, white water rafting, etc.

Fortunately, this group was also here to do more than surf the waves at Kuta. They were here to do community service as well. Because of this organization, these young Americans were lucky enough to meet some beautiful and intelligent Balinese youngsters at the orphanage. These children needs financial, emotional and scholastic are met with the help of all of the teachers and volunteers at the orphanage under the direction of Ketut.

The leaders from International Doorways were so moved by all of this that they have already signed on to do two more weeks of community service next year with this orphanage and another one for disabled Balinese children. It is also operated by Ketut. All of the Americans went home remembering these wonderful hours with the kids at the orphanage even more than the fun of snorkeling. This is a great group and we are happy that they are joining forces with us to help the children of Bali.
