I cannot believe how people jump down your throat if they do not agree with what you post! Sarah you don't need to go to an orphange to find needy people, just visit one of the Banjars (like a council) in one of the many small villages that don't survive on tourism. I have been going to Bali since the 70's, and still take goods over to many Balinese friends that are less fortunate than me, and they love it! If you get out of the Kuta rat race(70% owned by the Javanese). Go with your gut and don't listen to what others think. There is an orphange in Giyannar just ask a driver to take you there! How wonderful for your children to see you being so kind, they will follow in your footsteps just like my son has.
