Amadea Cares Renovates Elementary School Library in Tabanan: A Gift for Students' Future

In a heartwarming show of community support, Amadea Resort & Villas has helped fund the renovation of an elementary school library of SD Negeri 1 Antap, Selemadeg in Tabanan, Bali, which had been rendered unusable due to significant damage to its ceiling. With no budget from the school to address the issue, the library was unable to serve its vital purpose in enhancing students’ literacy in both scientific and non-scientific subjects.

The head of the school, Gusti Ayu Kadek Ratna Yati, S.Pd.SD expressed gratitude for Amadea Cares, the resort’s charitable initiative, which stepped in when other funding sources fell through. “While we tried to secure funding from various avenues, we struggled. Amadea Cares has made a tremendous difference. Now, we can provide our students with the proper facilities they deserve,” the head of the school shared during project hand over on January 13, 2025 at the school.

Amadea Cares funds its initiatives through a unique donation program, inviting guests of Amadea Resort & Villas to participate in its "Missing Out on One Drink Today Could Make Someone Smile Forever" campaign. Guests are encouraged to donate starting from Rp 5,000, the cost of a soft drink in Bali. This small act of kindness goes a long way, helping to fund crucial local projects like the library renovation.

In addition to supporting education, Amadea Cares is also a major sponsor for children with craniofacial disabilities through its collaboration with Yayasan Senyum Bali. Beyond that, the initiative also provides vital support to families in need, ensuring that children have the opportunity to attend school and receive an education.

Wayan Warta, General Manager of Amadea Resort & Villas, expressed his appreciation for the guests who support these initiatives. “Bali has benefited greatly from tourism, but not everyone enjoys those benefits. Through Amadea Cares, we aim to channel the positive impacts of tourism to those who need it most, bringing joy to the local community,” he said.

Thanks to the generosity of Amadea Cares and its guests, the Tabanan school now has the essential library facilities that will help nurture the minds of young learners, making a significant difference in their education and future.
