About

Yayasan Sahaja Sawah Foundation is a non-profit, independent organisation working to improve the lives of the local community and people of Bali. We aim to generate a prosperous society and improve quality of life through education and awareness of creating and maintaining sustainability in nature with a community of awakened culture.

We have been helping the local villages for many years as Sahaja Sawah Resort since its construction in 2008. Since we got so many requests of how others can also help and join in our efforts and so that we could do more. The founders of the Yayasan ( Ariani, Tia, Nguarah, Ngurah & Ketut ) are residents of the village to who wanted to support their village.
