Hi
There are a couple of projects happening out that way.
The BFN Project Education is one and you can click the title on the right hand of the Welcome banner at the top of this page.
Rotary also has a project out at Bunutan just south of Amed but not sponsoring individual children, but more general support for the schools. If you go to the Rotary Club of Seminyaks website at http://www.rotaryseminyak.org/index.html you will find some info.
There is another one Rotary arranges which is direct personal sponsorship that you can find out about at www.geocities.com/balischoolkids or email me direct at noel@lonarch.com.au
There is another Rotary one in Boutihing in the north, once again with personal direct student sponsorship, and also fully tax deductible here in Oz. www.gawlerlightrotary.org.au
Another alternative is the Helen Flavel Foundation which has a website at www.helenflavelfoundation.org
I believe all have a good track record and are trustworthy. Feel free to email any queries you may have about any of these as I always have time to talk about these special kids in Bali.
Cheers
Noel
