Administrator of Dewi Shinta Children-Friendly Integrated Public Space (RPTRA) in Kelapa Gading, North Jakarta collaborates with Keluarga Mahasiswa Penggiat Lingkungan Hidup Farmasi from Muhammadiyah Prof. Dr. HAMKA University (KMPLH-FARKA) to open donation for victims affected by forest and land fires (karhutla) in Kalimantan and Riau.

Until today, we have collected 5,000 masks

Dewi Shinta RPTRA Administrator, Winda explained, this donation is opened until Thursday (9/26) in form of face mask distribution. Through this donation, her side wants to encourage North Jakartans, especially Kelapa Gading residents to help the victims.

"We have coordinated with RPTRA administrators in Kelapa Gading to socialize this donation. It has started since September 20," she conveyed, Tuesday (9/24).

Her side only accepts donation in form of mask. Later, collected masks will be distributed to residents in affected locations, especially for children at school age.

Those who live in Kelapa Gading and its surrounding and interested to donate can bring the mask to Dewi Shinta RPTRA or the nearest RPTRAs that collaborate with her side.

"Until today, we have collected 5,000 masks. Donation will be opened until Thursday (9/26)," she informed.

One of the local residents, Erna (39) said this donation is also socialized to early childhood education programs (PAUD) children in RTPRA and she appreciates it because it could encourage children from early age to care for the others.

"Hopefully this donation can be useful, especially for children at school age in affected areas," she stated.
