Dear beloved Sahabat Anak,

Thank you for your attention and trust in us. We never thought that one day there would be support in the form of nutritional assistance to our children.

The number of children who participate Bimbel (Tutoring) in Kebayoran Lama ranges from 60-80 children aged 6-14 years. They come from the marginalized areas on the outskirts of the railroad Kebayoran Lama, and their parents mostly work motorcycle taxi drivers, scavengers, jockey 3in1s, or peddlers. A friend named Dominique looked for a place so that these kids could get extra lessons outside school hours. We have now run activities there for 5 months. We have seen a positive change in the children, they have become more manageable and more enthusiastic to come every Saturday, and their reading has also greatly improved.

Besides learning English, Bahasa Indonesian, Art & Crafts and Mathematics; we also provide moral lessons (character building) in each meeting. In addition, once a month we give a presentation about health and hygiene.
We also have a programme for nutrition. Every meeting, we prepare milk, jelly, bread, wheat crackers and other nutritious items. We were very grateful when Sahabat Anak offered to donate routine nutrition for the children, as part of the Program NUTRITION FOR MY FRIEND (NUS).  This funding comes from public participation in response to this noble program.

Saturday, October 9 is the first week of the NUS Program in Kebayoran Lama. Sahabat Anak presented an incredible storyteller, thanks to Kak Awam! The kids were mesmorized by the motion and the songs and messages in the compelling story. Thank you also to the Sahabat Anak team: Walter, Simsim, Aiwa, Maretha, Gita, and Vina. Thanks for your excellent care and attention. The nutritious goods distributed were papaya, pineapple, and bananas cut into small pieces and mixed together, accompanied by the milk bought by Sahabat Anak.

For next Saturday the 16th of October, we’ll prepare  jelly and apples that are rich in vitamins.

Once again, thank you to Sahabat Anak for their kindness. Let us work together to help these children because they are the future of our nation.

Regards,
