Packing their things and personal belongings, grown-up girls moved to their new house this May, thanks to the support of couple Jörg and Catrina Mϋller and their friends in Germany. Mr. Mϋller works in Deutschebank and has raised funds for Batang Pinangga in the past. The couple has visited the foundation in 2006.
Furniture and fixtures of the house were supported particularly by Aktion Wasserbϋffel,e.V, under the leadership of couple Helga and Dr. Jochen Range whom Batang Pinangga has been in cooperation with since 2001.
The new house accommodates six teenage girls with ages 12 to 18, and physically separates them from the little ones. The house’s theme is a butterfly, which is a symbol of a new start: the girls would cook, budget, and manage the household while at the same time attending school.
