Apadrina a WTF: Bali, Indonesia

🌱 Friends and Supporters,

In Bali, farmed animals have almost no voice.

Across Indonesia, a handful of organisations campaign for slightly larger cages or more “humane” treatment — but almost no one is asking the deeper question:
Why are animals exploited at all?

Animal exploitation here is so normalised that pigs are slaughtered and dismembered on the side of the street as tourists watch. Baby chicks are killed in ceremonies. Goats are slaughtered publicly as part of celebrations framed as generosity and community.

Bali Animal Rights Club (WTF Bali) exists to challenge this reality — and to show that people can practice tradition, faith, and citizenship without using animals as products or resources, creating a better world for animals and humans. ✊🌏

🌏 Advocacy Within a Complex Reality

Protest in Indonesia carries real legal and personal risks. Because of this, WTF Bali activists work carefully within existing legal frameworks, finding innovative, culturally sensitive ways to raise awareness and inspire change — without putting activists at risk.

🐾 What We’ve Achieved So Far

In just the past few months, with very limited resources, WTF Bali has:

Supported local activists to host outreach stalls at vegan festivals

Shown powerful animal rights footage to thousands of Indonesian locals and international tourists

Promoted accessible, delicious plant-based food alternatives

Given talks on veganism and animal rights at schools and faith-based youth groups

Supported the narration and promotion of the Bahasa Indonesia version of The 3 Minute Movie Challenge (3minutes.wtf/id), which has been viewed hundreds of thousands of times

Every conversation helps break the idea that animal exploitation is inevitable or unquestionable.

💚 What Your Donation Will Support (The Year Ahead)

With your support — especially as a monthly sponsor — WTF Bali will be able to:

Give talks at schools, faith groups, and universities

Offer samples of delicious plant-based food to hundreds or thousands of people

Host educational outreach events on private property across multiple venues in Bali (permission already secured)

Promote The 3 Minute Movie Challenge even further across Indonesia

Work toward securing permission to host educational events on university campuses

Your support gives us the stability to plan, grow, and innovate within Indonesia’s unique and challenging circumstances.

🤝 Become a Monthly Sponsor of WTF Bali

By becoming a monthly sponsor, you’re helping build one of the only abolitionist animal rights voices in Indonesia — where animals are otherwise almost entirely unrepresented.

Even a small monthly donation creates lasting impact, especially while donations are being tripled.

🙌 Transparency and Accountability

We are deeply committed to transparency. All members of WTF Bali have permanent access to a shared spreadsheet detailing every expenditure, with links to receipts for full accountability. Funds are used carefully and exclusively to support animal advocacy, education, and activist support in Bali. Donors receive updates, and we’re always happy to answer questions or explain how funds are used.

Together, we can help create a future where animals are no longer treated as disposable resources. 🌱💚

With gratitude,

James & The WTF Bali Team
