Volunteers
Without the help of volunteers the houses for street children could not exist. The volunteers take care of the children, feed them, listen to the children, help them with their problems and give them healthcare & education. These people really see the importance of their work. Some of them grew up being a street child and now want to help other street children to give them a brighter future. A few volunteers live in the local area of the Steetkids House and offer their help to the children. 24 Hours per day there are volunteers in the Steetkids House to provide them the help that they need.
Untill now, approximately 80 volunteers have been involved with projects. These volunteers mainly came from Indonesia, but some of them came from The Netherlands, Canada, Japan, Iran and The USA.

Anyone interested in becoming a volunteer for the RumahBambu Foundation can contact the organization to look at possibilities in rumahbambu[at]gmail[dot]com. Or just go to this contact page. There are still people needed in Jakarta to help realizing the projects (for example buying materials and handing it out to the children) and people in The Netherlands to help with the fundraising.
