MEMBANTU
The Indonesian word for HELPING HANDS
At Half Geek Half Chic this is exactly what we want to be. Helping Hands.
WHAT I LIKE BEST ABOUT THIS ORGANISATION.....
It works with the local Balinese people, without taking over control.
The Membantu Project genuinely wants to help and make
change, for the better.
BUT not by way of imposing all of our western ideas and technologies on these communities.

Five percent (5%) of all HGHC profits will be donated to the Membantu Project.
This project provides education, food, clean water and sanitation to over 8 (eight) orphanages throughout Bali.
I was first introduced to the Membantu Project while working corporately for a company who largely supported the initiative.
During my years working for this company, I was given the opportunity to escort teenagers on a mission trip to Bali (in 2008).
Together we worked and served in two of these orphanages.
We painted, cleaned bathrooms, built a pair of Aqua-ponics ponds to initiate a resource for a sustainable food supply. Laid bricks, rendered walls and played with the kids.
That fortnight and those kids, improved and profoundly changed my life.
And for all the "fortnights" to come, I want to GIVE, to improve and change theirs.
