At Your Best Life (YBL), we believe that living fully means caring not only for ourselves but also for the planet that sustains us. A healthy environment is the foundation for a healthy life, and our choices ripple outward into the well-being of our communities and future generations.
That’s why YBL is partnering with Sungai Watch, an environmental organization working to stop plastic from entering the ocean by cleaning Indonesia’s rivers. Founded in Bali in 2020 by Gary, Kelly, and Sam Bencheghib, Sungai Watch has grown into 160+ river warriors designing scalable solutions to tackle plastic pollution: barrier by barrier, river by river. Together, our goal is to raise $10,000 to fund three powerful initiatives.
-
USD $6,000: Full Floater-Sized Barrier (12 months)
Funds the installation of a full-sized trash barrier capable of stopping 3,300+ pounds of plastic waste, tripling the capacity of a mini barrier. Supports 10+ local green jobs while targeting one of Bali’s most polluted waterways. Donors of a full floater can dedicate their barrier (individual or company name) and track its impact through Sungai Watch’s online dashboard.
USD $2,400: Teman Tumbler Program
Provides 500+ reusable tumblers to schoolchildren and communities in need. Helps Sungai Watch launch the new “Tumbler Buddies” campaign: Tanpa plastik, lebih asyik! (“No plastic, it’s fantastic!”). Shifts daily habits away from single-use plastics, inspiring the next generation to live more sustainably.
USD $1,600++: Bali Flood Response
Supports emergency cleanup in flood-affected areas by clearing rivers and canals blocked by trash, logs, and debris. Funds consistent manpower, trucks, and protective gear. Strengthens the welfare of Sungai Watch’s River Warriors, who risk their health cleaning daily.
