The experience

My name is Ibu Ria and I'm a mother of three daughters. For the past 7 years, I've been working as a social activist. My family and I have ambitious goals for making our village a better place for kids. Unfortunately, our area is grappling with multiple problems, including a lack of awareness about the importance of education, early marriage leading to unprepared parents, and teenagers struggling with drug and smoking addiction.

Our work is divided into two parts: school and village. We visit different schools daily to teach English and engage students in our campaign. In the evenings, we assist with community projects in the village.

Overall, we're looking for individuals who are passionate about social issues and willing to get involved in our community-based initiatives. We value creativity, enthusiasm, and a willingness to learn and grow. We hope that by working together, we can make a positive impact on the lives of the children and teenagers here.
