Habitat Updates
Gresik, December 11, 2025 – Habitat for Humanity Indonesia and Pakuwon Group continue their shared commitment to creating real impact for communities, particularly in reducing the number of families—currently in the millions—who still live in inadequate housing.
This effort is strengthened through Pakuwon Group’s CSR program, which this year is directed toward building 21 decent housing units in Campurejo Village, Panceng District, Gresik Regency. The construction was officially launched with a groundbreaking ceremony on Thursday (4/12).
On this occasion, the Regent of Gresik, represented by the Regent’s Expert Staff for Physical Infrastructure, Johar Gunawan, expressed appreciation and full support for the synergy built through this program. He emphasized that improving settlement quality is a key priority for the Gresik Regency Government.
According to data from the Office of Cipta Karya, Housing, and Settlement Areas, as well as Bappeda, there are 145 housing units targeted for quality improvement and 90 new housing units built as relocation sites for residents from village-owned land.
“Of these 90 units, 69 are funded by the government, and 21 are facilitated through the CSR initiative of Pakuwon Group in collaboration with Habitat for Humanity Indonesia. We deeply appreciate this collaboration and hope that the beneficiary families will take good care of the homes built for them,” said Johar Gunawan.
Similar support was expressed by Habitat for Humanity Indonesia through Abraham Tulung, Resource Development General Manager. He emphasized that this program is part of Habitat Indonesia’s long-term mission to build better lives for low-income families.
“Habitat for Humanity Indonesia has been present for more than 10 years, building decent homes, providing access to clean water, and developing community centers and sanitation facilities for families in the bottom income deciles 1 and 2,” he said.
Saibun Wijaya, Director of Pakuwon Group, also highlighted the importance of safe housing as a foundation for families to thrive. “The houses we build together with Habitat Indonesia are expected to help homeowners plan for their future and open new opportunities for them,” he stated.
This collaboration is a tangible example of how the private sector, nonprofit organizations, and local government can work hand in hand to deliver sustainable housing solutions. With the construction of these 21 decent housing units, Campurejo Village not only receives new infrastructure but also new opportunities for its residents to begin their journey toward a safer, healthier, and more dignified life.
