*3.12.1 Elder care (theme-12a)*

As a participant said that "we help the elders without any external support for only our conscience satisfaction and because of the community believes that the great asset in our community is human being." The community supports the elders in two ways: one is in their home, and the second way by preparing dormitory they bring them to elder care center. And the community uses two sources of income to support the elder, the first one is the income collected from the tourists as entrance fee, and the second one is by organizing the community as voluntaries one day a week every Tuesday working for the elder's care (**Figure 6**).

The elders who supported in the elder care house come voluntarily, they can walk and sit out of the house, and their relatives and family members come and pass time with them (**Figure 7**).

As the researcher got the information from the interview, the community-based organization, which is the so called "aregawuyan maqoya," in which members and voluntary supporters are only members of the community.
