Hi, my name is Ida. I resigned from formal schools since 6 years ago to help my husband organize his institution, Kampoeng Sinaoe (non profit organization) since 16 years ago. While the students are learning, I enclose some moral values, cooperation, conservation awareness, charity, social projects and many more. We host many poor and the orphans students without payments. Our goal is to build a balanced education system for the poor and the rich. We are in need of more volunteers to make our institution grow better and bigger. Our village can continue to be empowered by the many resources the institution provides it. I want this institution to benefit not only around my village, in Sidoarjo area, but throughout Indonesia. I believe good education is the precious asset we need to reach our dreams, and to make Indonesia a better nation. I have various students here. Starting from kindergarten until university students, employees or professionals. We distinguish them in some classes or levels. As our classrooms our centre has eco-gazebos and we use some of the local people's front space as classes.

The most incredible volunteering experience!!! This place is perfect for getting to know locals, learning so much about Indonesian culture, and making a true social impact. Bu Ida and Pak Zam are the most lovely couple with the most generous hearts and made me feel like family the moment I stepped foot on KS. The students and teachers invited me to so many fun events from playing bad minton to eating at Warungs and I made some lifelong friendships with so many people here. I genuinely felt apart of the KS family and am really sad to leave. I'm even coming back next year! Highly recommend!!!! ❤

My time at Kampoeng Sinao was truly life-changing. Bu Ida is one of the kindest people I’ve ever met, dedicating her time and home to helping others. The house is simple, but full of love, and you instantly feel like family.

The students are adorable, and the volunteer hours are fair. I even got to attend a beautiful wedding! Kampoeng Sinao became a second home, and I miss everyone already. Highly recommend this meaningful experience!

I truly enjoyed my experience teaching English to children—they were incredibly motivated, and I’ve never seen kids with such big, genuine smiles. The family I stayed with took great care of me, offering delicious meals and making me feel right at home. In my free time, they were so thoughtful and proactive, always suggesting activities and helping me explore their beautiful country. This was one of my first experiences like this, and it’s definitely one of the best I’ve ever had.

Amazing volunteering, is a project with social mission, with beautiful values and dedicated people working to bring opportunities to everybody in the community. You get involved in Kampoeng Sinaoe family and they make you feel at home.

Everything is clear regarding to duties and all the promises are fulfilled.

Working with young people gave me the opportunity to inspire with my history and teach about my culture, while I was learning about Indonesian culture. Was a short time but very valuable.

A small detail is the house is not very clean, I decided to help Ida as she is very busy.
