Why We Exist

Limited Access to Education

Many children in remote islands must travel long and dangerous routes just to reach school — some even have to swim or use unsafe boats.

Limited Access to Clean Water

Communities in coastal and remote areas often lack access to clean and safe drinking water, posing serious health risks, especially for children.

Lack of Basic Infrastructure

Many isolated regions in Indonesia still lack essential infrastructure such as transportation, sanitation, and healthcare, which hampers education and overall well-being.

Bridging Access to Education

We provide safe and reliable school boats so children in island and coastal communities can travel to school without risking their lives. This ensures consistent school attendance and a better future for them.

Clean Water for All

We build and install clean water facilities like rainwater harvesting systems and water filtration units, empowering communities to have sustainable access to safe drinking water.

Supporting Remote Communities

We partner with local leaders to improve basic infrastructure including transportation, sanitation, and community-based support programs that enhance overall health, education, and sustainability.

About The Foundation

The Yellow Boat of Hope Foundation Indonesia (Yayasan Perahu Kuning Harapan) is a non-profit organization that aims to provide access to education for children in remote and poverty-stricken areas by providing boats to reach their schools. Began as School Boat Indonesia in 2015 when Meralda (co-founder) learned about the struggles of children in a coastal community in the Kerora Village, Rinca Island who had to separate with their families to get closer to the high school. In June 2023, School Boat Indonesia achieved a significant milestone by officially becoming a registered foundation and an official chapter of the Yellow Boat of Hope organization in the Philippines.
