Healthy Living for the North Sulawesi People

Who doesn’t dream of being as healthy and productive as possible? We all want to live a healthy life, but everyone doesn’t have the same access to healthcare or healthcare providers, making healthy living more difficult for some than others. LearnToLive has a goal to provide access to healthcare in remote regions of the world that are most in need. The 2012 Indonesian Health Initiative is a plan to spread the gift of health and take these efforts to North Sulawesi, Indonesia.

After raising capital through StartSomeGood last year to take a trip to North Sulawesi and assess local healthcare needs and obstacles, LearnToLive is ready to travel back to North Sulawesi this summer to address the needs that were uncovered on the initial trip. This summer, LearnToLive’s founder, Yanti Turang, is preparing to take a team of 12 doctors and nurses to take part in the 2012 Indonesian Health Initiative and deliver the gift of health to the people of North Sulawesi.

In order to make this trip a success, LearnToLive needs some support. This is your chance to become part of this health movement by making a pledge and sharing the 2012 Indonesian Health Initiative with your networks. If accessible healthcare is a cause that is important to you, please help make this trip to North Sulawesi a success. Yanti and her team have already raised $4,525 and are so close to their tipping point goal with 6 days left in their campaign. Let’s help LearnToLive make the 2012 Indonesian Health Initiative a success by getting this campaign fully funded!
