PT ASABRI (Persero) and Aksi Nyata Foundation have launched a collaborative initiative, the ASABRI Peduli Yatim Indonesia Program, to enhance educational access for orphaned and underprivileged children. The program, inaugurated in Jakarta, will provide financial support and continuous mentorship to 97 children, including orphans, the needy, and street children.

The initiative is a testament to the shared commitment of ensuring educational opportunities for children who have lost parents or come from disadvantaged backgrounds. ASABRI's support will enable these children to pursue formal and non-formal education, equipping them for the future. The program highlights the critical role of education in building a strong national human resource base, especially for those at risk of dropping out due to economic hardship.

We express our gratitude to PT ASABRI (Persero) and all its employees who have supported the life changes of the fostered children of Aksi Nyata Foundation. This support is not just educational assistance, but also a form of social investment that will produce a more empowered, independent generation ready to contribute to the nation.

Aksi Nyata Foundation, a humanitarian organization focused on empowering children and families, emphasizes its role in providing not just basic needs but also character building and leadership development. The Rumah Tumbuh Yatim serves as a safe environment for these children to learn and prepare for their future.

Fajar Sidik, Chairman of Aksi Nyata Foundation, expressed gratitude to ASABRI for their commitment, stating that collaborations between humanitarian bodies and businesses are key to expanding educational access for vulnerable children. Khaidir Abdurrahman, Director of Institutional Relations at ASABRI, affirmed the company's dedication to human resource development through education, hoping the assistance provides tangible benefits.

This assistance may not yet fulfill all program needs, but we hope it can provide tangible benefits for the orphans fostered at the Aksi Nyata Foun Orphanage.
