Be Sure to RSVP and be on the Guestlist in advance.
Manly-Manado
Manly-Manado is a community partnership between the people of Manly and the people of Manado on the Island of Sulawesi, East Indonesia. Manly-Manado exists to help transform lives out of the mutual poverty that exists within both communities. Manly-Manado provides much needed financial aid to the people of Manado. It empowers the people of Manly to personally take action against poverty using their passions and talents to tangibly affect someone in a specific community whilst at the same time encouraging community and education in Manly.
What the Auction & Event Money will be raised for
The money raised will be for Bridge Of Hope, Manly-Manado’s micro enterprise development partner and its work in Sumompo, the rubbish dump area of Manado. The rubbish dump is home to about 1,000 people who earn a living by scavenging for recyclable items 11 hours a day, 6 days a week.
Bridge of Hope is working with the Sumompo community to provide micro loans for families who have existing businesses on and around the dump. Its community worker is also providing education for children living on the dump who currently don’t attend school. Bridge of Hope also runs courses for adults in basic health, life skills and parenting as well as providing free health clinics for those who live on the Sumompo dump.
