Update 1 - May 4 2020
Thank you everyone for your generosity. Surely the silver lining to this experience is the uniting of us all in the pursuit of kindness.
We want to let you know how we will process the funds you have donated.
We plan to
:
- withdraw the funds from Gofundme into a local Australian bank account;
- from there we will do an international transfer to our business bank account in Bali where the funds will be converted into Indonesian Rupiah;
- we will distribute the funds to families and individuals by way of:
a) cash gifts; or
b) bank transfer.
- should we donate to:
a) a local village administration specifically for the purchase of food and for medical assistance; or
b) a food fund or charity operating in Bali;
we will do so by bank transfer.
All cash distributions will be recorded on a spreadsheet detailing the recipient's name, national ID number, telephone number, address and their signature (however only their name and signature will be made public).
Bank transfers will be recorded in another spreadsheet with details of the recipient and supported by accompanying bank transfer receipts.
Sophie & Peter are on the ground in Bali while Josh is in Australia managing administration. As explained in our story above, we are identifying people in need through our contacts and business networks in Bali.
We intend to issue funds on a weekly basis and we will let you know when we have made these distributions.
With thanks,
Sophie, Peter & Josh
