Hi I'm Ottilie, I am at the Green School Bali and currently I’m working on my Quest project which is called ‘Sweet Dreams.’ It’s a project that helps the community and is something your passionate about .
For my Quest I want to raise money for mattresses which is not talked about enough, my goal is 100 which might be a bit bold, but im exited to try, I will be giving the mattresses to 2 charities.
Kaki Kita, who I visited in Singaraja and make prosthetic legs and recycle plastic into furniture. All their 15 workers sleep on flimsy mattress or cardboard on the floor, 8 of these workers have lost limbs or the use of them.
Bali Children Foundation is my next charity who I had a meeting with and were very exited to work together. They educate 12,000 children in Bali. If these children had good mattresses, they would sleep better which means they would get better grades at school and be healthier as their bodies would be strong to fight off diseases.
Each sprung mattress costs Rp 1.4 million rupiah, and a pillow is Rp 80,000 (£70 or $91 USD). Every person that sponsors a mattress, I will let you know the name of the person it goes to, and I will let you know how they are doing after having some good night’s sleep. I wanted to do this as it will make what you are doing more real and relevant and part of this project I am excited to work on. (again what I want to do is raise enough money for 100 mattresses, this might seem bold, but I like aiming high. 15-20 of the mattresses will go to Kaki Kita, and the rest will go to Bali Children’s Foundation who will give them to the families that need them most).
I would like to buy double mattresses as culturally families sleep together; I would like to buy good quality sprung mattress as they will last longer.
I’m sure you are asked for money all the time but it would be incredible If you wanted to donate to Sweet Dreams and sponsor a mattress or part of one It costs £75 or $93 dollars this would include 2 pillows too. And I will let you know the name of the person it has gone to so you can follow their journey into sweat dreams
Thanks for taking the time to listen to this and if you know anyone you could share this with that would be amazing the more people that have Sweet Dreams the better.
