OUR STORY
Selo Footprints lies at the heart of Selo Group’s community and environmental initiatives. Based at Selong Selo Resort in South Lombok, our non-profit foundation works hand-in-hand with local residents to uplift communities and care for the land we share.
As the impact arm of Selo Group—a Lombok-based real estate company specialising in eco-conscious resorts and villas—we reflect the company’s commitment to responsible tourism and meaningful, long-term change. Our initiatives focus on education, healthcare access, biodiversity protection, and creating sustainable livelihoods.
Registered under Yayasan Jejak Selo Indonesia, we approach every project with purpose and genuine care.

Funding Sustainable Change
At Selo Footprints, every contribution fuels meaningful partnerships that create lasting impact. Together, we support four key causes, building a legacy of change for a better future:
Education
Empowering local children through language, eco-literacy, and skills that prepare the next generation for a sustainable future. We aim to expand into adult programs to foster lifelong learning.
Environment
Protecting Lombok’s natural landscape through regenerative land management, agroforestry, and community-led waste initiatives like coastal clean-ups.
Health & Well-being
Delivering essential medical care and wellness programs to remote villages, helping families live healthier, more resilient lives.
Social & Culture
Celebrating Sasak heritage through cultural workshops like weaving and natural dyeing while supporting female artisans with sustainable income opportunities.
While donations are the heart of our work, we also raise funds through alternative efforts.
A key contribution comes from Selong Selo Resort, where $2 per night from every villa stay is donated on behalf of guests. With our operational costs funded separately, 100% of donations go directly to local communities.
We welcome purposeful partnerships with individuals and organisations who share our values. Together, we can amplify impact and create lasting change.
To collaborate, contact us at info@selofootprints.org.
One way we stay connected to the land and community is through biodiverse landscaping. What started as caring for villa surroundings has become a platform to create beauty, support sustainable practices, and provide meaningful work and learning opportunities for local female farmers.
These efforts are not-for-profit—every rupiah goes back into our programs and to the farmers and artists behind them, ensuring the community benefits first. Every contribution matters.
Australian donors can make tax-deductible contributions through our partnership with World Relief Australia (WRA).
