Since Rotary Year 2024/25, the Rotary Club Bali Nusa Dua has been supporting a small but deeply impactful stunting prevention program in Pidpid Village, Karangasem, in partnership with Yayasan Nexuba.

​

Nexuba (Nexus for Education & Health of Bali) is a locally rooted foundation dedicated to improving the health and future prospects of children in underserved communities. Working hand-in-hand with village midwives and Posyandu services, Nexuba not only provides essential nutrition, but also empowers parents with knowledge on feeding, hygiene, and child care — creating lasting change beyond immediate support.

​

We began by supporting five children suffering from stunting — a condition that, if left untreated, can affect a child’s physical and cognitive development for life. Encouraged by the commitment of families and the first visible improvements, we expanded the program in RY 2025/26 to ten children.

​

Today, we are seeing real progress. Based on the latest monitoring, 4 out of 10 children have already reached normal growth ranges. Most of the remaining children are showing steady improvement, although continued support and monitoring remain essential, particularly in more severe cases. Behind every data point is a child gaining strength, a parent gaining confidence, and a family gaining hope.

​

Looking ahead, RCBND is exploring the continuation of this initiative in RY 2026/27. With sustained support, we can give these children not just better nutrition today — but a stronger, healthier future.

​

Sponsors are warmly welcome. An amount of just USD 350 per year can support one child on their journey to recovery.
