Campaign Story
Hi, I'm Putu Gede from Bali, Indonesia. I used to be a local guide here in Bali and also get contracts on cruise ships in order to provide for my family. But due to Covid, tourism has completely shut down Bali. Which means my family and I are completely without jobs. At first, we were very optomistic that we could get through this but as the uncertainty continues with covid we are running out of money to buy food. Luckily last month we received aid from a friend (see pictures) but I'm worried what the future will look like and we need a more sustainable way to eat. This is when I realized my dad had been a fisherman his whole life before tourism and we could go out together to fish. The only problem is that he no longer has a boat. The plan with your help is to buy a traditional Balinese fishing boat so that we can catch fish for our family along with selling for money at the local marketplace. Between my dads knowledge and my youthful strength I believe we can turn our situation around if we had a fishing boat. If we cannot raise enough however, all the money will go to food and essential supplies. Thank you for your time and when this is over, I can't wait to welcome you to Bali.
