That morning, the sun slowly peeked from behind the trees in Karang Tengah Village, Babakan Madang District, Bogor Regency. Its warm rays danced among the dew drops that had yet to evaporate, greeting the enthusiastic faces of volunteers who were beginning to gather. Among them stood Siti, an employee of Trisula Corporation, who, instead of sitting in front of a computer, was holding pliers and iron wire.

Her hands were busy assembling iron for the house’s foundation. This was Siti’s first time joining a house-building effort with Habitat for Humanity Indonesia. Her face was flushed from the sun and physical work, but her smile never faded. “Wow, this is really fun and quite tiring, actually. My fingers feel stiff. Usually, I’m typing, and now I’m a construction worker. But it’s really exciting,” she said with a laugh.

Not far from her, Lili, her colleague, felt the same way. “Today was really fun, being able to be directly involved in building homes for families here. This experience makes me feel more grateful,” she said with sparkling eyes.

That day was more than just fieldwork. More than that, it was a day of gotong-royong (cooperation), a day where companies, communities, and volunteers joined hands to achieve something greater than themselves. Through the collaboration between Habitat for Humanity Indonesia and Trisula Corporation, seven low-income families in Karang Tengah Village would have more decent, safe, and dignified homes.

The process began on June 14, 2025, when over 80 Trisula employees built the house foundations. A week later, on June 21, more than 60 other employees returned to install the house walls. From pillar to pillar, brick by brick, they built not just physical structures but also spirit and hope.

Julifer, Director of PT Mido Indonesia (a subsidiary of Trisula), was present at the location and stated, “Through this activity, we want to show a real contribution in helping others. We hope that these houses built can become comfortable homes, as well as open greater opportunities for recipient families to earn a living and build a better future.”

Carrying the spirit of “Let’s Create a Better Life for All,” this collaboration was more than just corporate social responsibility. This activity became a meeting place between the corporate world and community realities. Interestingly, the beneficiaries did not just wait for their houses to be built. They also participated, blending into the rhythm of construction, contributing their energy and spirit.

Throughout that day, the sound of hammers echoed with laughter. Volunteers and residents shared stories, shared food, and even shared sweat. They formed lines, lifted bricks, mixed cement, all done with the same heart – a caring heart.

Activities like this not only leave behind livable homes for families in Karang Tengah Village but also deep memories for Trisula Corporation employees. For the employees, this experience opened their eyes and hearts to realities often overlooked in daily life. For the recipient families, this is the beginning of a new life: safer, more dignified, and full of hope.

Habitat for Humanity Indonesia expresses its highest appreciation to all Trisula volunteers. For us, every wall built is a symbol of care. Every foundation laid is a small step towards a more certain future. Because a home is not just a place to live; a home is where hope begins, and a meaningful life grows from there.

Habitat for Humanity Indonesia warmly welcomes and fully supports the initiative of the Government of the Republic of Indonesia through its “Three Million Homes” program aimed at alleviating housing poverty. Based on data from the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR), Indonesia’s housing backlog reached 12.71 million units in 2023. Furthermore, approximately 2.69 million households still occupy uninhabitable homes. We believe that every family in Indonesia deserves a decent, safe, and healthy home as a foundation for a better life.

In line with this spirit, Habitat for Humanity Indonesia has a strong commitment to making a tangible contribution to achieving this noble goal. However, we believe that the most significant impact can be achieved by focusing our efforts on the most vulnerable communities, who are often marginalized from formal housing access.

Therefore, Habitat for Humanity Indonesia specifically directs its support within the “Three Million Homes” program towards providing decent housing for communities in the lowest economic groups (decile 1), with a per capita income below Rp500,000,-/month, and lower-middle income groups (decile 2), with a per capita income of less than Rp1,200,000,-/month. These groups, with their limited and often unstable incomes, face significant barriers in accessing banking services and conventional housing finance schemes due to not meeting credit eligibility requirements. An innovative and collaborative approach is needed to reach those most in need, ensuring that the dream of owning a decent home is not impossible.

Furthermore, Habitat for Humanity Indonesia prioritizes women-led households and people with disabilities. These groups often face double vulnerability in accessing safe and affordable housing. Therefore, our decent housing program is inclusively designed, prioritizing and considering their specific needs, and empowering them to own homes that improve their quality of life and independence. This strategic focus is based on our conviction that by prioritizing the most vulnerable community groups, we not only provide shelter but also open doors to improved health, education, and family economic stability. This is a long-term investment in building a more just and prosperous Indonesian society.

As a first step, Habitat for Humanity Indonesia has collaborated and signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Ministry of Housing and Human Settlements of the Republic of Indonesia, Directorate General of Rural Affairs, Tangerang Regency, Tangerang City, Bogor Regency, Karawang Regency, Kulon Progo Regency, and Gunung Kidul Regency for the development of decent human settlements.

Moving forward, Habitat for Humanity Indonesia invites corporations, academics, and partners to collaborate. Together, we can build resilient, inclusive communities and provide equal opportunities for every family to have a decent home – a place where hope grows and futures are built. Together, we can make a real and sustainable impact, contributing to the government’s “Three Million Homes” program to reach the most vulnerable segments of Indonesian society.

Access to clean water is indeed the first step in creating a healthy environment, but to achieve sustainable change, education on Clean and Healthy Living Behaviors (PHBS) is equally important. This is what Habitat for Humanity Indonesia, in collaboration with PT Bumi Resources Tbk, has been doing in Kampung Wangun 2, Karang Tengah Village, Babakan Madang (2/5). 

A total of 208 local villagers participated in the PHBS Knowledge Enhancement activity, designed to raise awareness about the importance of personal and environmental hygiene. Through a fun and interactive approach, participants learned in an engaging way. Activities such as practicing the six steps of handwashing, interactive quizzes on hygiene myths and facts, and a sanitation-themed snakes and ladders game made the training not only informative but also enjoyable.

One of the participants, Tami, shared that the training was very beneficial. “I now understand more about family hygiene. The little things I used to overlook have a big impact. I will be more careful in maintaining cleanliness,” said Tami.

Tami’s experience reflects the everyday reality of many families in Babakan Madang, where illnesses like diarrhea and dengue fever (DBD) have been persistent challenges—largely due to limited access to proper sanitation and hygiene facilities.

To address these challenges, Habitat for Humanity Indonesia, with the support of PT Bumi Resources Tbk, had previously assisted 159 families in Kampung Wangun by providing PHBS training and access to clean water. This support laid a strong foundation for collective behavioral change across the community.

Through this initiative, Habitat Indonesia hopes that every small step taken by individuals will have a significant impact on the health of families and the community. With healthy habits instilled in every household, the goal is to create a stronger and healthier community in the future.

Since childhood, Mrs. Juniati (42) grew up with her parents in a modest home. The same house where she now cares for her parents in their old age. Despite the many memories, the house they lived in was no longer fit for habitation. However, it had never crossed her mind that the help to repair the house would come from the generosity of donors and volunteers from Habitat for Humanity Indonesia. 

The house she grew up in with her parents now looks different. The house that was once made of plywood with an asbestos roof and a light steel frame now stands strong, offering the safety and comfort they had never experienced before. 

Previously, every time heavy rain poured down, Mrs. Juniati had to prepare to collect the water that seeped into the house, as if she didn’t, the entire house would be flooded. The same was true when strong winds came, the whole family had to sit anxiously outside the house. 

“It wasn’t just the heavy rain that worried me. When the wind came, we all had to sit in front of the house, afraid the house would collapse. It would creak, creak…,” said Juniati, recalling the tense moments they went through. 

Financial limitations added to the burden. Her husband, Indra (42), a construction laborer, earned less than 130,000 IDR (approximately 8 USD) per day. With that income, fixing their broken house was not something they could afford. “If we had money, we would definitely want to build. But that’s just wishful thinking. We’re barely getting by, pressed by the economy,” said Juniati.

But one day, a ray of hope came. The Habitat for Humanity Indonesia team visited their home and offered assistance to rebuild the house they had long dreamed of. Mrs. Juniati could not hide her gratitude. “Oh my God, really? Is the house really going to be built? Is Habitat really going to build the house?” she said, moved by the news. 

The construction process began, and it didn’t take long to feel the difference. Now, their home has become a comfortable and safe place to live. Juniati shared that her husband, Indra, is now more enthusiastic about working. “Now, he’s really excited to work. Even when he works far away for months, he says he’s never worried about the house anymore, unlike before when he’d keep calling about the condition of the house,” said Juniati, smiling. 

There’s also a funny story she’ll never forget. “When we first moved into this house, I kept sleeping in because it was so comfortable I’d miss waking up on time,” she laughed. Their lives are now much calmer, and this new home has become a place filled with happiness for their family. 

Not only that, but a week after the house was completed, Indra eagerly built a kitchen for his wife. For them, the house is no longer just a place to live but a place to build dreams together. “A house is a palace for a mother. If you have money and a vehicle, but no house, where will you sleep? So, the house must be taken care of,” said Juniati, full of responsibility. 

Now, Mrs. Juniati can spend more time taking care of her parents, providing them with the comfort in their old age that she had always dreamed of. This new home is the greatest gift for their family, a place to share love, care for their parents, and enjoy days full of happiness. 

The transformation felt by Mrs. Juniati and her family is a tangible testament to the significant impact we can make when we support one another. Habitat for Humanity Indonesia remains committed to providing decent housing for millions of families across Indonesia. Let’s support this effort and be part of the change.

Jakarta, May 28, 2025 — Habitat for Humanity Indonesia has officially established a strategic partnership with the Ministry of Housing and Residential Area of the Republic of Indonesia to support the acceleration of the national 3 Million Decent Homes Program. 

The partnership was formalized through the signing of a Cooperation Agreement (PKS) between Dr. Drs. Imran, M.Si., MA.Cd., Director General of Rural Housing at the Ministry, and Handoko Ngadiman, National Director of Habitat for Humanity Indonesia. The signing, held in Jakarta, was also witnessed by Arwin Soelaksono, Program Director of Habitat Indonesia, along with several officials from the Ministry of Housing and Residential Area, marking a joint commitment to addressing housing challenges in Indonesia, especially in rural areas. 

This collaboration is a concrete step to strengthen joint efforts in the development of housing and settlements, with a primary focus on accelerating access to decent housing for low-income communities. Through the synergy between government institutions and civil society organizations like Habitat for Humanity Indonesia, it is hoped that structural and financial barriers in housing provision can be addressed with a more inclusive and sustainable approach. 

“The signing of this agreement marks a significant milestone in our joint efforts to provide new homes and improve the quality of existing housing. This collaboration serves as a solution to address the ongoing housing backlog. We greatly appreciate the support from Habitat for Humanity Indonesia in the 3 Million Homes Program,” said Imran. He also emphasized the importance of cross-sector partnerships to reach communities in remote and rural areas that still face limited access to decent housing.

Meanwhile, Handoko Ngadiman stated that the partnership would be a significant boost for Habitat for Humanity Indonesia in expanding the reach and impact of its programs. “The support from the Ministry of Housing and Residential Area, especially through the Directorate General of Rural Housing, means a great deal to us. This agreement provides a stronger foundation for us to implement various initiatives aligned with the national housing program. We are currently targeting the construction of 500 decent housing units by the end of 2025 and hope to exceed that number to reach 1,000 units. Our main focus is on families in the first and second income deciles, who are among the most vulnerable in terms of access to housing,” he explained. 

Furthermore, the Ministry and Habitat Indonesia are also planning to implement a pilot project in the near future. This project will focus on area-based housing development, which not only provides physical homes but also integrates key aspects such as environmental infrastructure, sanitation, health, and disaster resilience. This holistic approach is expected to create broader and more sustainable impacts while supporting the development of resilient communities. 

This collaboration is expected to not only accelerate the achievement of national housing targets but also strengthen public trust in Habitat for Humanity Indonesia’s efforts to provide safe, healthy, and dignified homes for Indonesian families. Moving forward, such synergies are anticipated to open more opportunities and reach even more families in need of decent housing.

That afternoon, in a village on the northern coast of Tangerang, Tinah (45) was busy watering the plants that decorated her blue house. Her face radiated a smile unlike any seen before—one filled with hope and happiness. The dream she had long carried in prayers and hope had finally come true. A decent home she had always wished for to enjoy her old age and care for her beloved grandchild now stood firmly before her. 

Before the new house arrived, Tinah’s life was full of struggle. The inherited home from her parents, with bamboo walls and a leaky roof, felt extremely limited and uncertain. “I used to sleep in the living room, and my husband slept outside on a bamboo bench. When it rained, water would leak in from the holes in the roof. We tried to endure it, but it was really hard,” recalled Tinah, her eyes welling up as she remembered those difficult times. 

It wasn’t just the rain that threatened them—fear also filled the house. The decaying walls made the house not only prone to leaks but also vulnerable to animals. “One night, a snake got in. My daughter, who was pregnant at the time, was so frightened. We were all panicking,” Tinah said, her voice trembling. The fear didn’t stop there. The house also became a target for crime, with more than two break-in attempts. “More than twice, someone tried to break in when no one was home. I was terrified,” she added, her eyes staring into the distance, as if reliving the anxiety. 

For Tinah and her family, owning a decent home was never easy. Her husband, Sarnadi (45), works as a fisherman laborer catching crabs and harvesting seaweed, earning only about Rp100,000 (USD 6) a day. Tinah also works as a farm laborer, adding Rp50,000 (USD 3) to their daily income. With that limited income, they could only afford basic meals and patch up the damaged house walls. “We couldn’t even think about building a new house. It was already hard enough just to eat. The leftover money was only enough to patch the broken walls,” said Tinah with a tired but resilient expression.

Everything changed when Habitat for Humanity Indonesia, together with IES Jakarta, came to help build new, decent homes for Tinah and 49 other families in Marga Mulya Village, Mauk, Tangerang. “I’m so grateful to Habitat and IES for building us a beautiful home like this,” Tinah said with deep gratitude. 

Now, Tinah feels like her life has changed. “I have a new spirit. My mind is at ease—I no longer worry about leaks or animals entering the house. Now I can just focus on feeding my family and caring for my grandchild,” she said with a bright smile. This home is more than just a shelter—it provides safety, peace of mind, and renewed hope for Tinah and her family. 

Sarnadi can now work more confidently without worrying about the house’s condition, even starting to set aside small savings for the future. “We have a dream—to one day save enough to build a kitchen in the back and a permanent front porch,” Tinah shared with hope in her voice. 

For Tinah, this house is more than just a place to live. It’s a symbol of freedom, a place where her family can grow in safety and comfort. This house has become the foundation for a better future, where dreams and aspirations can flourish. 

The presence of a decent home not only provides physical comfort but also brings stability and independence. It’s a significant transformation with long-term impact for families like Tinah’s, giving them the opportunity to live a better life.

Bogor, May 31, 2025 – Habitat for Humanity Indonesia once again held its annual CEO Build charity and volunteer event, carrying the theme “Board Room Leaders, Community Builders.” This year, the event was led by Edwin Soeryadjaya and involved 58 Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) and leaders from various prominent companies and educational institutions in Indonesia. Together, they built five homes out of 38 decent homes collected through fundraising by participating companies and individuals for low-income families in Kadumanggu Village, Babakan Madang District, Bogor Regency.

This activity is part of Habitat Indonesia’s long-term commitment to address the national housing backlog, which currently stands at 9.9 million units. In Kadumanggu Village, Babakan Madang District alone, at least 82 families still live in uninhabitable homes. Since starting the program in Kadumanggu Village, Habitat Indonesia has built 1,061 homesthrough new construction and housing quality improvements. This initiative aligns with the achievement of Sustainable Development Goal (SDGs) point 11, which aims to make cities and settlements inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable. The majority of beneficiaries who receive support for decent housing construction are female heads of households, people with disabilities, and daily laborers who face economic limitations, making it difficult for them to improve their living conditions. CEO Build serves as a platform for active participation of corporate leaders to create a real impact on society.

Since it was first held in 2015, this program has built 82 decent homes: 4 units in Bogor Regency in 2015, 11 units in Gresik Regency in 2019, 29 units in Banyuwangi Regency in 2022, and this year, 38 decent homes in Bogor Regency.

The enthusiasm of this year’s participants further strengthened the spirit of cross-sector collaboration. Gita Tiffani Boer, Director of PT Astra International Tbk, stated, “I am very enthusiastic to be directly involved in this activity with the ASTRA team. This is not just about building houses; it’s also about bringing new hope to beneficiary families.” Meanwhile, Sandiaga Uno, Co-Founder of PT Saratoga Investama Sedaya Tbk, added, “After five years, I am happy to be able to participate again. I believe that building decent homes is part of our collective responsibility as citizens to improve the well-being of our brothers and sisters.”

Edwin Soeryadjaya, as the leader of CEO Build 2025 and President Commissioner of PT Saratoga Investama Sedaya Tbk, expressed his hope that this activity can inspire more parties to participate. “I am happy to see the spirit and commitment of the CEOs in supporting Habitat Indonesia’s vision. We live side by side in this world, and we should help each other,” he said. Handoko Ngadiman, National Director of Habitat for Humanity Indonesia, emphasized the importance of multi-stakeholder synergy in addressing the housing gap in Indonesia. “The target of 3 million decent homes cannot be achieved by the government alone. Collaboration between the community, the private sector, and non-profit organizations is needed. We invite all parties to work together to build a better future for families in Indonesia.”

Habitat for Humanity Indonesia expresses its deep appreciation to all CEOs, donors, and sponsors for their support. The CEO Build program is clear evidence that leadership can extend beyond the boardroom and have a direct positive impact on people’s lives. Going forward, Habitat Indonesia will continue to open opportunities for cooperation with various stakeholders to expand the reach of its programs and encourage decent, safe, and dignified housing for millions of families in Indonesia.

Local governments should find more innovative ways to maximize the utilization of the local budget to support low-income households in having or renovating their houses. The local government should be creative in funding allocation to eliminate the housing backlog and inadequate housing. This initiative is needed to help low-income households finance housing construction or renovation.  

Deciding the amount of support for house funding is a dilemma. It cannot be used to renovate or build a house if it is too small. The money will go to anything else, such as daily consumption. If the funding is significantly large, then what kind of house will they build? Anyone will be tempted to build a big house, but later on, they will find out that the money will not be sufficient. Government funding will also not be enough since many low-income households need support. Then what will be the solution? We need to consider limited budget, but support as many households as possible with adequate housing.  

Those were discussed during the workshop in Gresik Regency, East Java Province. The Vice Regent of Gresik acknowledged that the regency has more than 6,900 inadequate housing units. Utilizing the village budget was discussed during the workshop on advocacy for providing adequate housing by the Local Government budget. The local government needs to find innovative ways to add its portion to the limited village fund. As discussed, a policy should be developed for technical guidance on prudently operationalizing this initiative.

Supporting this initiative, Habitat for Humanity Indonesia shared its experiences developing the Regent Decree about Technical Guidelines for Building Decent Houses in Tangerang Regency. This policy was proven to be useful, as the Tangerang Regency Housing and Settlement Agency built more than 3,100 adequate housing units for low-income families.  

Moreover, with the generous support of PT Arthawenasakti Gemilang, Habitat Indonesia had supported families in Wringinanom Subdistrict with a Community-Based Disaster Risk Management (CBDRM) approach.  This disaster risk management approach involves communities actively identifying, analyzing, treating, monitoring, and evaluating disaster risks to reduce their vulnerabilities and enhance their capacities to prevent and withstand the damaging effects of hazards.  

Understanding the risk, they proactively add features such as elevating the floor level since they have annual flooding. With this approach, too, families contribute to the construction cost by paying part of the builder’s wages and daily snacks, adding porches and ceremonies as common practices in their villages. This approach ensures responsibility and ownership, and since the families contribute to the process, they will maintain their houses properly. 

Combining advocacy and proof of robust houses constructed will send a strong message of the successful collaboration of local government, homeowners, and Habitat for Humanity Indonesia, which is supported by its generous donors. This will encourage replication, and this approach can be used across the country.

Yogyakarta, May 15th, 2025 – Habitat for Humanity Indonesia, in collaboration with Herbalife Family Foundation, today announced the successful completion of a community-based program focused on stunting prevention in Kedungkeris Village, Ngilipar District, Gunungkidul Regency. The program, titled “Building a Brighter Future for the Next Generation: A Household-Centered Stunting Prevention Approach through Integrated Housing and Settlement Development, WASH Access, and Awareness Improvement,” has made significant strides in addressing stunting and improving community health.

Stunting remains a critical health issue in Indonesia, affecting an estimated 21.6% of children under five years of age nationally and 23.5% in Gunungkidul Regency. This program aimed to combat stunting by addressing its root causes through a holistic approach.

“We are proud of the positive impact this program has had on the community of Kedungkeris,” said Rudi Nadapdap, Senior Manager of Field Operations Habitat for Humanity Indonesia. “By providing access to safe and healthy housing, clean water and sanitation, and crucial health education, we are empowering families to create a nurturing environment for their children to thrive.”

The program’s key achievements include:

• Construction of 5 new houses
• Construction of 30 private toilets
• Construction of a Posyandu (integrated health post) building
• Training programs on healthy homes and clean and healthy behaviours (PHBS)
• Training for Posyandu cadres
• Provision of supplementary feeding

Arif Mustolih, Director Public Affairs Herbalife Indonesia, stated that this program is the result of collaborative efforts to find solutions and address the challenges of malnutrition, including the high rate of stunting among children in Indonesia.

“This collaboration with Habitat for Humanity which started in 2019, is part of the Casa Herbalife Program, a global initiative by the Herbalife Family Foundation that works with community organizations to provide nutritious food, educational resources, and safe environments for children and underserved communities,” said Arif.

Globally, the Herbalife Family Foundation has awarded $5 million in grants to 164 nonprofit organizations across 59 countries and territories for the 2024–2025 period.

The closing ceremony for the program was held on May 15th, 2025 at Posyandu Sendowo Kidul, Kedungkeris Village, Ngilipar District. The event was attended by local government officials, representatives from the Nglipar Community Health Center (Puskesmas), Posyandu cadres, beneficiary families, community leaders, and staff from Habitat for Humanity Indonesia and Herbalife Family Foundation.

On May 1, 2025, Habitat for Humanity Indonesia celebrates its service as it reaches its 28th anniversary. This journey has been filled with hope, hard work, and collaboration to provide better living conditions for low-income communities across Indonesia. 

For nearly three decades, Habitat Indonesia has made a significant impact, reaching over 215,000 families through various programs that touch upon the fundamental aspects of their lives. Programs such as decent housing, access to clean water and sanitation, disaster response, economic empowerment, development of education and health facilities, and partnerships to improve housing access, all aim to help communities achieve a better quality of life. 

In 2025, Habitat Indonesia has successfully built 39,478 decent homes, an increase from 38,869 homes the previous year. A total of 31,375 families now have access to clean water and proper sanitation, a significant increase from 27,009 families in 2024. Additionally, 71,504 families have received renovation funding, demonstrating a commitment to creating safer and more comfortable homes. 

These numbers are the result of the hard work of the entire Habitat Indonesia staff and all those who have tirelessly worked in various regions, including Jakarta, Tangerang, Bogor, Karawang, Cilegon, Yogyakarta, Gresik, and Batam with the involvement of 2,399 volunteers from various background.

This success would not have been possible without the dedication, enthusiasm, and solid teamwork, as well as the support of various stakeholders, including partners, donors, and volunteers who have always been by our side. Habitat Indonesia stands strong thanks to this collaboration, which allows us to continue carrying out our noble mission of helping millions of families secure decent housing. Without them, these achievements would have been difficult to achieve. 

“We believe that every individual has the right to a decent place to live. On behalf of all the families we have helped, we would like to express our deepest gratitude to everyone who has been part of this journey,” said Handoko Ngadiman, National Director of Habitat for Humanity Indonesia. 

With continued enthusiasm, Habitat Indonesia is committed to moving forward. The programs we run not only provide short-term assistance but also long-term impacts that enhance the overall quality of life in communities. We believe that true change begins with providing opportunities, and we are determined to continue opening those opportunities for more families. 

“We are confident that, through collaboration, we can create real change that not only meets basic needs but also paves the way to prosperity for more people,” added Handoko. 

Habitat Indonesia’s journey is far from over. There are still many families in need of assistance. However, we will continue to stand by them, providing access to decent housing and opening opportunities for a brighter future for millions of families in Indonesia. 

Let us join hands and be part of the real change. For a better future, for every family, for a better Indonesia.
