  • What can we expect of the monument?

    The Flower of Life will be a beautiful place built within the natural surroundings of a 13-hectare park bordering a UNESCO world heritage site amidst the picturesque rice terraces of Tabanan, Bali. A place to contemplate, reflect, meditate and learn about the challenges and solutions facing us in the modern world, as well as a place for the holding of unique and special events. The 4000m2 architectural masterpiece will also be a green generator of electricity composed of 429,822 personalised glass hexagons that will be donated by Bali-Lovers from all over the world. These hexagons will be covered with energy-generating interlayers of photovoltaic cells that are expected to generate up to 1 MW of energy, which will be used to take care of all power needs of the site and will be partially re-fed into the Balinese energy grid to support the local community.

    The overall budget is estimated at US$8,000,000 for full and final construction of the Flower of Life.
  • What makes your project so unique?

    While most charitable causes need your continuing help with regular donations time after time, we ask only for a one-time donation. That’s it! With it we create a one-of-a-kind monument that will generate the income streams that we need to provide long-term support to projects and initiate new projects that will make a difference. Financed totally by donations, it will be the biggest crowd-funded energy field on Earth, containing 429,822 personalised, solar-power producing, glass hexagons that will be contributed by caring souls from all over the world. Corporate partners will provide the stem structures that will hold them all in place.

  • Where is my money going?

    After deduction of administrative costs, 20% of your donation will be used to fund the most urgent needs of our charity partners. 80% will be held back for the construction of the Flower of Life monument. We strive to limit our administrative costs to an absolute minimum. After the construction fund is secured, 100% of profits will be channelled into charitable and worthy causes.
  • What happens to the money that has been held back if you don’t reach your target? Do I get my money back?

    In the event that we don't reach our target in the allotted time, 100% of funds raised that have been reserved for construction of the monument will be channelled back into our charity partners and their social and environmental causes.
