C19 - FOOD BANK

It's time to give back!

We need your support to go on fighting hunger in Bali. Now more than ever before.

We would love to introduce a beautiful project that we have recently joined - FOOD BANK with Founder Max Bratsun.  At Makara wear, our clothing is handmade with great care by 2 Balinese families, and we are feeling a strong need to give back to the community.  We are so grateful for the people of Bali, with their crafty hands and lovely culture - we feel that now is a great time for us to give back to the people, especially those in need of food.  For every purchase you now make with us - 10% of the sale will be passed on to the FOOD BANK. 

We feel that this is our mission, that it's universal law to help each other during these difficult times.  We are not only giving 10% from our sales at Makara wear, but we would also like to invite our friend's, companies and partners to join this wonderful project with FOOD BANK.

If you feel like you would like to donate and help in a bigger sum or directly meet families and help, please contact us by gerda@makarawear.com

 FoodBank is an automated solution for management and tracking of your donations. We use data to make decisions on who needs help the most, and we make sure our combined efforts are applied proportionally to all people in need.

We have partnered with multiple Balinese food distribution initiatives run by locals and foreigners, and we're distributing basic food and hygiene packages ourselves employing volunteers and taking all safety measures.

How FoodBank donations work:

1.Share your donation in form of money or non-perishable food.* Zero management fees. All your donations are converted into food.

Please note FoodBank accepts only cash and food donations right now, while our non-profit legal entity (yayasan) is undergoing registration in Bali. However, you may want to donate to any of our partners using requisites below:
We stock up at the local market and order food directly from farmers
Alternatively we hand over your donations to the verified food distribution initiative we partner with. Here's how a basic food package looks like:
Typical food package
(might vary slightly)
  • 10-15kg of rice
  • 20-30 eggs
  • 1-2l of cooking oil
  • Eggplants, potatoes, carrots, chayote
  • Shallots, garlic, chillies
  • Sweet soy sauce
  • Several canned goods
  • A pack of tea
3.We pick the families in utmost need and deliver basic food packages to their doors
Our growing database has 1800+ records of people who registered at FoodBank.co and asked for help. We prioritize families with kids and no income for a long time. Yes, we do social profiling.
4.We promote you on IG and FB through our network of Bali businesses with international reach
We add an active link to your account right from the stories and posts showing food deliveries sponsored by you. Good for you, good for your business, and great for the people you help directly.

Together we are Stronger!
