We committed to the same goal: Joel Barker “Bringing hope Changing lives” LETTER FROM COUNTRY DIRECTOR CHARLES M. HAM Dear Friends of HOPE worldwide Indonesia, Greetings! 2010 has passed by, and we are entering a new decade. Time passes by and each individual we served together had a chance to live a better and rewarding life. I recall a young man who is not born with perfect body limbs. His family was not wealthy enough to neither support his High School education nor provide him enough nutritious meals. The young man came to our computer training center a few years ago only to be told that his application was rejected due to his limited knowledge and capacity. The news damaged hope, but not for him. He came to apply for the second time only to fail again. The third time he came around; there is no way that he could be rejected again. Admission team decided to give the enthusiastic young man a chance. He grabbed it, and finished the vocational training. After graduation, he volunteers to help new students as he diligently search for a job. He found one, a chance to start his life again. He worked hard, and got promoted. A few months ago, he came to our center in a nice car, bringing some donation for support the computer training center. He has not only changed his life, but providing hope for others to change theirs. L to R : Lambok, Rina, Willy, Slamet, Kasih, Ludiman, Semangat, Awiny, Lily, Misaya, Charles, Tiorengsi, Donald Another child runs happily as his mother and father happily hold their hands watching their sweetheart enjoying his childhood. The child was adopted from Pelangi Kasih (Rainbow of Love) Orphanage in Sentul, Bogor. He is living every child’s dream; loving parents, great education, and many more. His parents are happy couple who feel the blessings from above after years of praying and trying all possible suggestions from doctors; only to discover that they are destined for the child they are playing and MANAGEMENT TEAM raising up now. Charles Ham Country Director Donald Warouw CBDRR Program Manager A year has passed, and we are thankful to see the lives that come alive right in front of our eyes. All because you share a vision and take actions to fulfill it; a vision that Lily Ham Director of Development & Communication Lambok Hutagalung Saturday Academy Program Manager everyone can have hope and change his/her live for a better one.

The clinic grew, as the dream grew bigger, from a free clinic to a TB Control Program in 1999. Now with the support from Ministry of Health, WHO, Lions Club and medic/non medic vol- unteers, the TB clinic can serve 1.000 new patients annually. To 2010 1.449 patients are cured from Tuberculosis through the love and care from the staff that carry the vision to help the poor and needy to lie in safe pasture.

In 1996, 300 volunteers gather together to do a “10K Walkathon” fundraising to build an orphanage in Sentul, Bogor. The “Rainbow of Love” orphanage was built to love and care for the abandoned children. Its aim is to help them to find a loving and caring family, who will raise them and embrace them in the family. “RAINBOW OF LOVE” ORPHANAGE 2010 ! ! 5,630 3,726 3,277 1,499 1st Walk a Thon in 1996 106 112 ! 128 13 6 To 2010, 128 children were cared for and 106 out of them were already adopted into families who love and care for their needs. 7 of them have already finished Secondary school and have gone back to their home towns to pursue a better life for them (to lie in safe pasture). 128 children is a small number compared to the 1.000 children in a community of 5.000, who never received any health services. With the strong vision of helping the poor and needy to lie in safe pasture, in 2005 ‘Rainbow of love’ Orphanage; with the support from medic/non medic volunteers, began to give free medical treatment to 5.630 people from the area surrounding the orphanage twice a year. In 2010, together with EMC, a library was provided for 427 children who study in SDN 6 Cijayanti, a government primary school. 06 Vision In Action - Making Positive Change 07 ! !

He graduated in 2010 and now volunteers himself to teach in the Center as a teacher assistant. He knows that the knowledge he received needs to be practiced and shared to the next generation.

  • May 2016 Copy
    MAY 2016 ISSUE 5 IB RESEARCH MANY IDEAS! DUNIA NEWSLETTER LIVING THE LEARNER PROFILE THE IB LEARNER PROFILE AT GMIS “Education is life itself ” ~ John Dewey The IB learner profile which exemplifies the character sketch of an IB learner is the nexus of a learner’s life in PYP. Every learning experience is an opportunity to imbibe, calibrate, revitalize and express the portfolio of a communicator, inquirer, thinker and a caring, courageous, knowledgeable, open-minded, principled, reflective and balanced individual. The teachers adopt various strategies right from the ‘tuning in’ phase, scaffolding through to the reflection, wherein the learner makes a conscientious effort to fortify his/her profile. At GMIS, the day typically begins with Morning Assembly, this provides a true pathway to the timeless human values that develop PRINCIPLED students, the basic intrinsic profile attribute. The ’Wonder Walls’, ‘Query Corners’ or ‘Curious Quests’, coined with different terms, invariably offer a gateway to provoke thinking and questioning. Same is true with the ‘What are my opinions, thoughts, ideas and wonderings on...” activity of expression which makes every child a thinker, inquirer and a reflective person. When they read and reflect upon the perspectives of peers, they learn to become open-minded. The children become knowledgeable about the momentous global issues through ‘World on Stage’ presentations that inspire students to do their best possible actions en masse for a better community. They make each other aware and rise through action as good communicators. They become balanced by participating in various curricular activities and progress-oriented assessment tasks within the programme of inquiry, sports activities including athletics, basketball, soccer, cheerleading and various stage performances.

  • Education Guide Your Essential Guide to Education in Jakarta and Beyond
    WWW.INDONESIAEXPAT.BIZ 2019–2020 Education Guide Your essential guide to education in Jakarta and beyond 1 2 3 Dear Parents, Now more than ever, there are some great choices of international schools in Indonesia, whether you’re in Bali, Jakarta, or anywhere else in Indonesia. Choosing the right school for your child is always going to be tough, and when you’re a foreign parent in a diverse country like Indonesia, that decision can be even more of a challenge. Choosing the school that best fits your child, his or her academic abilities, skills, and aspirations, is going to cause anxious times. The right school is going to propel your child towards lifelong learning, the right college or university education, and ultimately a successful career with worldwide options. A school that will work with your children as they grow, that will nurture their talents, and reflect the way you are raising them is the goal when selecting where to send them. Being an expatriate parent means you have so many more options than the local public school down the street. That’s why this Education Guide is so important to helping you understand what schools you are able to choose from. With all the different things that you might want to look for, such as the curriculum or the after-school activities, this guide is going to set you on the right path for your seemingly arduous search. Indonesia Expat is proud to present our annual Education Guide for 2019/20. We’re positioned well to know what you’re going to be looking for, so we assess the things that concern you.
