International Juggling Festival!

SUCCESS

Yayasan Hidung Merah

Eight children from Yayasan Hidung Merah (Red Nose Foundation) have been selected to represent Indonesia at the International Juggling Festival in Burma from February 9-15, 2015. The children selected are from some of Jakarta's poorest slum communities, many of whom have not travelled outside of Jakarta, much less out of the country.Meet four of our students who will go to Burma!<img alt="" src="http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e38/mahditama/WawanUS_zps9a482fbe.jpg" style="border-style:solid; border-width:2px; float:right; height:320px; margin-left:10px; margin-right:10px; width:187px">First, meet Wawan Kurniawan. He is one of our first students and nowadays he also serves as a junior teacher at Red Nose Foundation, helping the younger kids learn circus arts.Despite living modestly in a fishermen's slum in Cilincing, North Jakarta, the 19-year-old has a big dream: he wishes to be a professional circus artist!In 2013, we sent Wawan to the United States and Canada for a four-month circus skills-training trip. During his time there, he participated in the Wheel2013 international german wheel competition. He became the first Indonesian ever to compete in the event.The trip to Burma will be Wawan's second time traveling overseas.<hr><img alt="" src="http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e38/mahditama/AprilCBC2_zps2febf00a.jpg" style="border-style:solid; border-width:2px; float:left; height:360px; margin-left:10px; margin-right:10px; width:290px">Next, meet Aprilyanah - or April. She is a smart and dedicated circus performer who has been with Red Nose Foundation since 2008. Nowadays, the 19-year-old girl is part of our junior teacher staff. She loves performing with her friends in front of a huge audience."I particularly love it when the audience gave a thunderous applause after our performances. It makes me proud and feel that I have accomplished something great," she said.In 2012, Red Nose sent April to Thailand to attend the Southeast Asian Social Circus (SEASC) Conference. Over six days, April participated in circus workshops and performances in Bangkok, Pattaya, Chiang Mai, and Chiang Dao. The trip to Burma will be April's second time traveling abroad.<hr><img alt="" src="http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e38/mahditama/RaisAnnual_zpsd28f637b.jpg" style="border-style:solid; border-width:2px; float:right; height:256px; margin-left:10px; margin-right:10px; width:206px">Ahmad Rais - or Rais as he likes to be called - is a friendly boy who loves to crack jokes.The 16-year-old boy is the youngest junior teacher at Red Nose Foundation. What he lacks in years, he makes up for in sheer enthusiasm and hard work.He still remembers his first ever circus performance in 2008. "I did a clowning act, I pretend to lift weights and act as if they were too heavy. Before the show, I'd been nervous, but when the audience laughed and clapped and cheered, all my fears just went away. I felt so proud."The trip to Burma will be Rais' first ever trip overseas. He said he would like to meet new friends and learn about new juggling and acrobatic tricks while in Burma.<hr><img alt="" src="http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e38/mahditama/MisnoFoL_zps416acba4.jpg" style="border-style:solid; border-width:2px; float:left; height:320px; margin-left:10px; margin-right:10px; width:258px">Meet Misno. The 17-year-old boy may seem a little bit shy at first (particularly to people he has just met), but once you get to know him, you will find that he is actually a spirited individual who loves physical activities.Just like Rais, April, and Wawan, Misno has been with Red Nose Foundation since the beginning. He loves juggling and executing acrobatic tricks with his friends in front of a large audience.The trip to Burma will be Misno's first time traveling to a foreign country. He says he is very excited for the journey. "I want to travel around and see new places in Burma. I want to meet new friends and learn new circus skills from them."<hr>Selection process for the other four students who will take part in the trip to Burma is still ongoing. Announcement of the four names will be made within the next few weeks. Stay tuned for updates!Help us give these children an opportunity to experience the world outside of their communities. Help us open these children's eyes to what they can succeed if they work hard and where they can go with enough hope!This trip is sure to be a life changing event for all the kids invovled, will you be involved in changing a life?<img alt="" src="http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e38/mahditama/DSC_0090_2_2_zps5e1350da.jpg" style="border-style:solid; border-width:2px; height:290px; margin-left:10px; margin-right:10px; width:512px">Profil Pemilik Proyek<img alt="" src="http://kitabisa.com/images/upload/23_11490_1414645340_111032_s.jpg" style="float:left; height:151px; margin-left:5px; margin-right:5px; width:220px">Yayasan Hidung Merah, atau Red Nose Foundation, adalah organisasi penjangkauan (outreach organization) yang bergerak di bidang seni dan pendidikan.
