Pak Pande of PGR in Payangan (Central Bali) converted his private residence into a waste disposal facility during the pandemic. There, he employs a waste sorting team that would otherwise have few job opportunities. One Chance has been supporting PGR since 2023 by funding salaries, training, and awareness-raising efforts.

The PKP Community Centre in Payangan (Central Bali) provides shelter, training, and integration into social activities for traumatized women from Bali and other Indonesian islands to support their gradual rehabilitation. We have been supporting the PKP Community Centre with a monthly contribution since 2021.

Since 2020, One Chance has been supporting Risa, who lost her parents during the pandemic, and covering her school fees. Starting in January 2025, One Chance will enable her to train as a nurse at Fuji Academy Bali in Japan. Her success is intended to open similar opportunities for other young people.

Social Business Angels from One Chance have been supporting the initial investment for the motorcycle rental service at Sari Hati School in Ubud since 2025. The project supports the school community and generates long-term funds for the land purchase. The Social Business Angels decide which social projects will receive 17% of the return. One Chance will continue to rely on social business as a model of support that benefits both parties and enables mutual learning.

Since 2023, One Chance has been funding the salaries of four mothers at the Sari Hati School in Ubud who care for their children with special needs. It's a win-win situation: The mothers can be with their children while simultaneously having a valuable job and earning money through their work at the school. There are many more families waiting for a school place for their child.

Wana Mertha manages 67 hectares with over 30 mangrove species in northwest Bali (Jembrana) and operates a social restaurant serving local specialties. In addition to sustainable tourism, Wana Mertha plans to establish a sustainable crab farm and a birdwatching observation platform. Close collaboration with local authorities and partners like One Chance ensures long-term ecological and economic benefits for the community.

Bendega protects and reforests mangroves in Java, Bali and Lombok to preserve ecosystems and secure the income of local fishermen and farmers.

We have been supporting Bendega as a sustainable start-up since 2022. Until 2026, we will jointly monitor the growth of the mangroves with data on tree height, diameter, leaf count, and reforestation.

Mangroves store 5–10 times more carbon than land-based forests – for decades to millennia. One Chance aims to plant mangroves specifically according to local people's needs. The reforestation pilot project with 3,000 seedlings in November 2025, with Bendega, Wana Mertha, and the local government, will run for two years. In the long term, we aim to plant 10,000 mangroves. Cost per seedling: approximately €1.30 (including two years of monitoring and reporting).
