SOS Kinderdorf Lembang (Java)

The first SOS-Kinderdorf of the country was built in Lembang, about 15 km away from Bandung.

In September 1992 the first children moved in to the SOS-Kinderdorf. The SOS-Kinderdorf has 13 family houses, 1 community house, 1 village manager house, 1 aunt’s house, 1 library and 1 SOS Kindergarten, where also children from the suburbs are attending classes. Children from different religion are living in this SOS-Kinderdorf. 1994 a house for retired SOS-aunts was built. There is also a medical center where also people outside the Kinderdorf are being treated. A SOS-Hermann-Gmeiner-basic school is attached to the Kinderdorf, which is being acknowledged from the government, 1998 a dental center and a social center were built.

In Bandung a SOS-youth house was built were young people from the SOS-Kinderdorf can finish their education.. In the SOS-Kinderdorf training center the young people can learn about carpenting, computer and metal worker.

Margaret Brunner-Surati is trying once or twice a year to visit the SOS Kinderdorf in Lembang. She is also visiting the SOS-Kinderdorf with her travel group. She is having an 8-year-old godchild, Mara. They are exchanging often letters. Every time she is visiting the SOS-Kinderdorf, Margaret Brunner-Surati is bringing cloths, toys, medicine, books etc for the children.

She has been working closely with the director Gregor H. Nithardjo together. And she is hoping that the Swiss people will show great interest in this project.
