Challenge

The rubbish collection ponies of Gili Trawangan have been tirelessly collecting 15-20 tonnes of rubbish every day for over 15 years. Unfortunately, the heavy loads have left them tired, lame, and in need of retirement. We aim to replace the ponies with motorized vehicles and ensure a safe, peaceful retirement for Rainbow and Mamba. Your donations will help cover their monthly living expenses and give them the rest they truly deserve. Please support this important cause.

Solution

We will replace the ponies with motorized vehicles for rubbish collection on Gili Trawangan and providing a compassionate retirement for the ponies. The transition to vehicles eliminates the strain on ponies and improves waste management efficiency. Retired ponies will receive proper care, food, water, and medical attention in a dedicated safe haven at Stud. This project ensures a more sustainable and ethical approach to waste collection while giving ponies a peaceful, dignified retirement

Long-Term Impact

This project will improve animal welfare by retiring working ponies and providing them with proper care, ensuring they live comfortably in their golden years. It will also transition waste collection to motorized vehicles, creating a more efficient and sustainable system. Long-term, this will promote compassion for animals, support environmental sustainability, and serve as a model for other communities, fostering a culture of ethical practices and inspiring positive change.
