How We Fund The Operation of Child-Centred Spaces
ChildFund Indonesia Country Director Bridgette Thorold said generous donors are helping ensure children do not fall behind in school once classes resume.
“ChildFund plans to support transitional education especially as schools are damaged, teachers displaced, and learning material destroyed, so that children can still have some opportunities to learn whilst the education system is being restored,” she said.
For families who have lost everything, these spaces are critical. Maya’s mother, Riyati, has seen a change in her daughter since she was able to play and learn. Thanks to her daughter’s improvement, Riyati is also less stressed.
“I am happy as my daughter has a space to play and do some activities,” Riyati said. “Before, Maya was just staying at the tent with nothing to do. This has helped us both cope with the stress.”
