ACTNews, SRAGEN,
BALIKPAPAN, AND CIREBON – Aksi Cepat Tanggap (ACT) continues to enliven the
preparation for the month of Ramadan through its branches. In Sragen, through
the ACT Branch in Solo, a story-telling activity was held at the Nurul Huda
Islamic School in Sambungmacan, Friday (3/11/2022). Quran copies and meals were
also distributed during the event.
Nining from the
ACT Solo Program Department said that this activity is the beginning of kindness
that will continue to be amplified during Ramadan. The target beneficiaries
will also continue to expand through various humanitarian programs, one of
which is the construction of Waqf Wells.
"Under the ‘Kan
Ramadhan’ campaign, we want to invite everyone to compete in doing goodness
during Ramadan,” explained Nining.
The ACT Branch in
East Kalimantan also held special activities to welcome the blessed month. The
team and the volunteers from Masyarakat Relawan Indonesia cleaned
Al-Hikmah Mosque in Pinisi Village, Kelandasan, Balikpapan, Sunday (3/13/2022).
Students from the local Quran school also took part in this activity.
"This
activity is part of the Back to Mosque movement that ACT echoes to invite
people to enliven mosques during Ramadan and afterward," said the ACT East
Kalimantan Branch Manager Imron Fitri Tantowi.
Meanwhile, in
Cirebon, the local ACT branch visited the disability and elderly communities,
Wednesday (3/9/2022). They come from various backgrounds but suffer the same
difficulties caused by the pandemic.
“We handed over donations
to people with disabilities. Hopefully, we can uplift their spirit in the
advent of Ramadan that occurs during the pandemic," said Faza from the ACT
Cirebon Partnership team. []
