Data Habitat for Humanity Indonesia menunjukkan masih banyak warga di Desa Kedung Dalem yang memerlukan bantuan masyarakat, diantaranya kebutuhan sanitasi dengan toilet yang bersih dan layak pakai.

“OHM bergerak di industri perhotelan, dan selalu menjadikan kebersihan sebagai bagian yang paling utama dalam pelayanannya.

Commemorating Kartini Day and the 25^th anniversary of Habitat for Humanity Indonesia, Habitat would like to appreciate “the Kartinis” who have taken part, given their hearts and strive to support our mission to provide decent housing for low-income families in Indonesia.

Habitat Updates team spoke with three amazing women at Habitat Indonesia who have been at least working for five years or more there. They are Rahayu, an office girl; Lestari, a finance officer; and Lucy, HRD manager.

Rahayu, who is familiarly called Bu Yayuk, said that she has been working at Habitat for more than ten years. Bu Yayuk works because she wants to support her husband, whose occupation is an online motorcycle taxi driver. “You know how much a driver’s income is, while I have two children who must go to school. One at the junior high school and another at the university,” told Bu Yayuk. Bu Yayuk has a very high spirit. Even though she needs to be at the office the earliest before other employees arrive, to make sure the room is clean and tidy, Bu Yayuk doesn’t feel tired and burdened because she knows what and who she is doing all this for. “Even though my job is only as an office girl, I know that what I do is beneficial for me and supports Habitat’s mission. If the room is clean, the employees will feel comfortable working. If donors come, they will be happy too. If the donors are happy, perhaps they will want to donate again, right? hehe”, said Bu Yayuk.

A few weeks ago, Habitat Updates team received the happy news that Bu Yayuk’s daughter had graduated from a state university and has been accepted to work in one of the leading State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) in Indonesia. “I am so glad. My daughter’s success today cannot be separated from Habitat’s role in allowing me to work so that I can send my children to college. My daughter got accepted at SOE today is the most rewarding gift for me.”

Like Bu Yayuk, Lestari and Lucy also have the same struggle. Even though they had to leave early in the morning because of the long distance between their homes and offices, they did not complain. Although they have to sit on crammed train, they use their time for quality things. “While riding the MRT, I listen to the radio, so I can know the current news. So no time is wasted,” said Lucy.

Lestari and Lucy know Habitat as a humanitarian organization that has helped many low-income communities to get decent housing. They are proud to be able to contribute to this great mission. “I believe that God’s plan is for me to work here. I am grateful that working at Habitat is not only for myself but to help the many people out there”, said Lestari.

Bu Yayuk, Lestari, and Lucy are determined to be enthusiastic about continuing their work and commitment in Habitat Indonesia “Even though we are women, we must also be like men. Work and contribute not only for the family but even more so for the nation,” said Lucy.

On this special day, Lestari encourages women to stay strong and don’t give up easily these days. “Happy Kartini Day to all the great women in this nation. Stay strong and have the passion for making an impact for people in need,” she concluded.

Memperingati Hari Kartini sekaligus 25 tahun Habitat for Humanity Indonesia, Habitat mengapresiasi para kartini yang sudah mengambil bagian, memberikan sentuhan kasih dan perjuangan untuk mendukung misi menyediakan hunian yang layak bagi keluarga berpenghasilan rendah di Indonesia.

Habitat Indonesia mencoba mengobrol dengan tiga sosok kartini hebat di Habitat yang sudah berkarya lebih dari 5 tahun. Mereka adalah Rahayu yang bekerja sebagai office girl, Lestari sebagai finance officer, dan Lucy sebagai HRD manager.

Rahayu yang akrab disapa bu Yayuk bercerita kalau ia sudah bekerja lebih dari 10 tahun di Habitat. Bu Yayuk bekerja karena ingin mendukung suaminya yang bekerja sebagai supir ojek online. “Tahu kan pendapatan seorang supir itu berapa, semenetara anak saya ada 2 orang yang harus disekolahkan. Satu di tingkat SMP dan satu lagi di perguruan tinggi”, ujar bu Yayuk. Bu yayuk memiliki semangat yang sangat tinggi. Meski datang lebih pagi dari para karyawan untuk memastikan ruangan sudah bersih dan rapi, bu Yayuk tidak merasa lelah dan keberatan karena ia tahu untuk apa dan siapa dia mengerjakan semuanya itu. “Meski tugasku hanya sebagai office girl, aku tahu bahwa apa yang ku lakukan itu bermanfaat bukan hanya untuk saya tetapi juga untuk mendukung pelayanan Habitat. Kalau ruangan bersih, karyawan kan jadi nyaman bekerjanya. Kalau donor datang, mereka juga kan senang. Kalau donor udah senang, kemungkinan besar mereka bisa terdorong berdonasi lagi kan hehe”, tangkas bu Yayuk.

Beberapa minggu yang lalu Habitat mendapatkan kabar bahagia kalau alah anak bu Yayuk telah lulus dari perguruan tinggi negeri dan diterima bekerja di salah satu BUMN ternama di Indonesia. “Aku senang sekali. Keberhasilan anakku hari ini tidak lepas dari peran Habitat yang memberikan kesempatan kepada saya bekerja sehingga saya bisa menyekolahkan anak sampai kuliah. Anak saya bisa lulus BUMN hari ini bagaikan kado terindah”.

Lestari dan Lucy juga memiliki perjuangan yang sama. Meski mereka harus berangkat lebih subuh karena jarak tempat tinggal dan kantor yang jauh, mereka tidak berkeluh kesah. Bahkan sekalipun mereka harus sempit-sempitan di kereta, mereka justru memanfaatkan waktu yang ada untuk hal yang berkualitas. “Sembari naik MRT, saya denger radio, jadi tetap bisa tahu perkembangan informasi yang ada. Jadi tidak ada waktu yang terbuang sia”, ujar Lucy.

Lestari dan Lucy mengenal Habitat sebagai organisasi kemanusiaan yang banyak membantu masyarakat berpenghasilan rendah mendapatkan rumah layak huni. Mereka bangga bisa berkontribusi dalam misi besar ini “Aku percaya bahwa sudah rencana Tuhan aku bekerja disini. Aku bersyukur bahwa bekerja di Habitat tidak hanya untuk diriku sendiri tapi untuk membantu orang banyak di luar sana”.

Bu Yayuk, Lestari, dan Lucy berkata bahwa mereka akan selalu semangat meneruskan pekerjaan dan perjuangan mereka di Habitat. “Meskipun kita perempuan, kita harus bisa seperti laki-laki. Berkarya dan berkontribusi terlebih bagi bangsa”, kata Lucy.

Di hari yang spesial ini Lestari mengajak para perempuan agar tetap kuat dan jangan mudah menyerah. “Selamat Hari Kartini untuk semua perempuan hebat di bangsa ini. Tetap kuat dan semangat memberi dampak bagi orang-orang yang membutuhkan”, tutupnya.

The spread of Covid-19 is surging rapidly, especially due to the Omicron variety. On February 17th, 2022, the confirmed cases have reached more than five million cases, which means it increases 1.5 times each week. The daily cases broke the record with more than 64 thousand new cases in one day. There is a potential that the daily cases can go up to 100-150 thousand per day.

This situation forces medical workers to work extra hard every day because the number of patients increased drastically. Nonetheless, they hesitate to go back home no matter how exhausted they are because afraid of transmitting the virus to their families. Moreover, Omicron is extremely easy to be contracted.

Therefore, medical workers need a decent temporary shelter again to keep distancing between their families, a place where they can rest safely and comfortably before resuming their duty serving Covid-19 patients.

Dyani Kusumowardhani, Director of Medical, Nursing and Support Services from RSPI Sulianti Saroso said, “The medical workers need precision and extra energy while handling the Covid-19 patients. They must be feeling more exhausted than usual, so the temporary shelter facilities provided by Habitat for Humanity Indonesia are very helpful, especially for medical workers whose house is so far from the hospital.”

“If worst comes to worst, I hope only me get the virus, not my wife, child nor my families”, said Ilham Wiguna, a Covid-19 nurse at RSPI Sulianti Saroso. Ilham realizes the importance of a temporary shelter for him and his loved ones to minimize the spreading of Covid-19.

Habitat for Humanity Indonesia has initiated the temporary shelter for medical workers program since 2020. Habitat has helped more than 2,000 medical workers from twelve different designated hospitals in Jakarta, Tangerang, and Surabaya. This year, Habitat once again encourages our communities to donate and support the temporary shelter for medical workers who are fighting in the front line.

At virtual press conference on February 23, 2022, Susanto, National Director of Habitat for Humanity Indonesia said, “The surge in cases due to the new Omicron variant demands medical workers to work day and night serving patients and risk exposing themselves this fast-spreading virus. As part of our support to the government and medical staff in reducing the spread of Covid-19, we are re-activating the Temporary Shelter for Medical Workers (abbrev: TSPM) program to provide a decent temporary resting place (hotel room) for healthcare workers. We hope that all of us can show our support for this TSPM program during the third wave.”

Susanto believes that this temporary shelter program is very effective in slowing the spread of the virus as we place medical staff away from their families. “With hotel room as a temporary shelter, they can rest comfortably as well as self-quarantine at ease.” he added.

Meanwhile, Secretary of the Directorate General of Health Services, Ministry of Health, Republic of Indonesia, dr. Azhar Jaya, who was also present at the press conference said, “The health and safety of medical workers is our top priority because they as the front line have a high risk factor for contracting the virus. That’s we need prevention effort by providing temporary shelters. This is one way to protect ourselves, family, and the community, to give a safer environment against Covid-19.

Support for providing temporary shelter for healthcare workers in this 2nd year also comes from one of the well-known communication technology brands in Indonesia, namely PT World Innovative Telecommunication with its smartphone product called OPPO.

Patrick Owen, Chief Creative Officer of PT World Innovative Telecommunication (OPPO Indonesia) said, “OPPO is proud to cooperate with Habitat Indonesia Foundation to provide temporary shelter for medical workers. They are our front defense against Covid-19 and we need to take care of their well-being and health. This TSPM program also becomes a part of OPPO Find Health, where we used to create a program to support medical workers in 2021, collaborating with Angel Pieters, Aero Aswar, and Asmara Abigail.”

Angel Pieters as the Brand Ambassador of OPPO Indonesia showed her support for this TSPM program, “Of course as part of OPPO family I feel so proud and support this program done by OPPO Indonesia and Habitat Indonesia Foundation. Besides, as a human centric brand, OPPO always tries to create innovation for its users.” People who want to give support can visit dukunghabitat.org . You can find an easy way to donate through that web page. This program will start on the third week of February until end of March 2022. This program might continue based on the situation and needs that occur.

Di desa Kasemben Kulon kecamatan Wringinanom provinsi Jawa Timur masih ada sekitar 200 rumah tangga yang tergolong dalam keluarga pra sejahtera dengan pendapatan per bulan yang rendah serta tinggal di tempat yang kurang layak. Kebanyakan masyarakat di desa tersebut bekerja di bidang pertanian dan peternakan sebagai buruh harian dan upahan dengan pendapatan rata-rata Rp 30,000/hari. Permasalahan yang terjadi saat ini adalah tidak memiliki fasilitas buang air besar yang layak, baik fasilitas secara induvidu ataupun bersamaan dengan tetangga lain. Mereka melakukan kegiatan buang air dengan menggunakan sarana yang disebut ‘jumbleng’ – toilet sederhana dengan dinding kulit bambu (gedhek) atau hamparan kain atau terpal bekas, dimana lubang kloset hanyalah tanah yang digali tanpa septictank, ketika selesai digunakan lubang ditutup dengan bilah kayu atau terpal.

Salah satu keluarga warga desa Kesamben Kulon bernama ibu Hermin sudah 25 tahun menggunakan WC jumbleng karena tidak punya pilihan selain menggunakan sarana ini. Beberapa waktu yang lalu anaknya sempat jatuh terperosok masuk ke dalam lubang jumbleng karena waktu itu malam hari di saat hujan serta minim penerangan dan licin. Ibu ini sempat terpikir membuat kamar mandi layak tapi urung dilaksanakan karena tidak ada biaya, untuk kebutuhan sehari-hari saja keluarga ini masih kekurangan.

The disaster struck at around 3 PM. Heavy ash fall to volcanic materials and lava flows travelled down the Lumajang Regency and its surroundings.

Mount Semeru with a height of 3,676 meters erupted and caused ash fall in Sumbersari hamlet, Supiturang village, Pronojiwo Lumajang sub-district, and East Java province. As a result of this activity, the community and sand diggers in the Leprak River ran away.

After being delayed due to the pandemic, Habitat Indonesia is back with Habitat Charity Golf Tournament on December 15, 2021, at Imperial Golf Club Karawaci.

Habitat Charity Golf Tournament is a routine event held every 2 years since 2010, as a place for Indonesian golfers to compete and donate, to support decent housing for underserved families in various regions in Indonesia.

Susanto, National Director of Habitat for Humanity Indonesia said “The pandemic has taught us the importance of decent housing for families. To urge people “Stay at Home” must be equipped with a proper and healthy home as an initial step to protect families from the Covid-19 virus. Indonesia still needs 10 million decent houses and through the Habitat Charity Golf Tournament we are able to meet some of the needs for decent housing, especially for people who can’t afford it, so as to create a healthy and strong Indonesia. Ever since the tournament was first held in 2010 until now, through the Habitat Charity Golf Tournament we have built more than 200 decent houses.”

The participants of the Habitat Charity Golf Tournament were given the option of donating, namely to support the construction of one new house, they donate 50 million rupiah, and to support the renovation of a house, they donate 30 million rupiah.

This year, Bank HSBC Indonesia is the main sponsor of the Habitat Charity Golf Tournament 2021.

Francois de Maricourt, President Director, PT Bank HSBC Indonesia said “HSBC is committed to supporting sustainable economic and community development in Indonesia. We are pleased to be able to support Habitat for Humanity Indonesia in the program to build decent housing for the people of Mauk, Wringinanom, and Babakan Madang, as an expression of our commitment in Indonesia.”

“We are very grateful, Habitat Charity Golf Tournament 2021 which was delayed for a year, has successfully collected donations for the construction of 22 houses for the community in Mauk-Tangerang, Babakan Madang-Sentul and Winginanom-Gresik which will begin at the end of January 2022. I would like to thank all parties involved,” concluded Susanto.
