– On the second day of tashreeq, Thursday (7/22/2021), Global Qurban-ACT
continued to expand the distribution of qurbani meat. One of the distribution
locations is the Greater Bandung area which includes the City and Regency of
Bandung and Sumedang. A total of 1,300 packages of qurbani meat were
distributed to underprivileged residents and those currently in self-isolation.
One of the
distribution points of Global Qurban-ACT's sacrificial meat in Greater Bandung is
in Jatinangor District, Sumedang Regency. Several Indonesian higher education
institutions are located in this district. Due to the activity restrictions,
this area has been deserted by college students who have gone to their
respective houses. The economy of the locals, who depended on the hustle and
bustle of campus life, has been severely impacted.
In collaboration
with Imah Dakwah, Global Qurban-ACT distributed qurbani meat to residents in
Jatinangor. One of the distribution points is in Sayang Village, where the
locals were delighted by the sacrifice of three qurbani cows.
“Thank you to
Global Qurban-ACT Bandung for sending the cows to the residents of Jatinangor.
This meat is very helpful for the residents, especially during the activity
restrictions. May Allah bless us all,” said Dodo, the village head of Sayang.
The local economy
of Jatinangor has been severely affected by the pandemic. The area that was
previously filled with the activities of the college students has been empty.
Consequently, the livelihood of the locals has also been hampered.
"With the qurbani
meat distribution, we hope to share happiness in the midst of the pandemic. It
is a tangible manifestation of the generosity of the qurbani donors who want to
share happiness with the residents of various parts of the country through
Global Qurban-ACT," said Trisna Adi Permana, Global Qurban-ACT Bandung Branch
Manager.[]
