The aid is the result of four months of collecting Alfamart Consumer\nCharity Funds, during June\u2013July and November\u2013December. The funds were\nraised through consumer change donations at Alfamart stores.<\/p>\n
Baznas RI Chairman Noor Achmad expressed appreciation for Alfamart\u2019s\nconsistency in collaborating with Baznas for several years. He said the\ntrend of collecting consumer charitable funds has increased year on\nyear.<\/p>\n
\u2018Alhamdulillah, Alfamart has been working with us for several years\nand remains consistent. From the first year until now and it has\nevidently increased. This shows that consumers trust entrusting their\ncharity through Alfamart to be distributed by Baznas,\u2019 Noor Achmad said,\nquoted from an official statement on Thursday (5\/3).<\/p>\n
\u2018In other words, with such strength, Alfamart cannot be abandoned by\nits consumers. It will become even stronger, especially if it continues\nto partner with BAZNAS,\u2019 he added.<\/p>\n
Moreover, Noor Achmad explained that the Ramadan Happiness Package\ndistribution is prioritised for vulnerable workers and UMKM actors,\npeople with disabilities, the extremely poor and neglected, orphanages\nand dhuafa foundations, as well as educators and preachers in various\nregions.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, five ambulances will be placed at Rumah Sehat Baznas West\nJava, East Jakarta, Bulukumba, Jepara, Pelalawan, Karanganyar, and Palu.\n\u2018With a beneficiary target of 85,398 people,\u2019 Noor Achmad said.<\/p>\n
He added that public trust is the main capital for the sustainability\nof the collaboration. According to him, Alfamart customers do not\nhesitate to donate through round-up donations of less than Rp500 and to\ndonate without shopping with a free donation, because they are confident\nthe funds will be managed honestly and professionally. \u2018In other words,\nthe collaboration between Alfamart and Baznas is trusted by the public,\u2019\nhe said.<\/p>\n
He hopes the collaboration will continue and deliver greater social\nimpact not only during Ramadan momentum, but throughout the year.<\/p>\n

He\nemphasised that the programme is a tangible manifestation of public\ntrust through consumer round-up donations at Alfamart stores across\nIndonesia. \u2018This is an honour for us. The funds collected we ensure are\ndistributed to rightful recipients through Baznas. Today we see how that\ntrust is managed professionally and targeted,\u2019 Solihin said.<\/p>\n
He added that the collaboration is not merely a programme of\ndistributing aid, but a long-term commitment to delivering measurable\nand sustainable social impact. According to him, Alfamart\u2019s consumer\ndonations are the key to the programme\u2019s success.<\/p>\n
\u2018Indonesians are extraordinary. When donating for a meaningful and\nwell-targeted cause, they give willingly. We commend all Alfamart\ncustomers. Without them, this programme could not exist. Thank you to\nloyal Alfamart customers,\u2019 he said. (H-2)<\/p>\n
This aid is an act of collaboration between the private sector and\nIslamic philanthropic bodies in response to the humanitarian crisis in\nPalestine.<\/p>\n
Collaboration with Yayasan Yatim & Fuqoro Miftahul Jannah is an\nimportant step in ensuring the aid can be managed and used\neffectively.<\/p>\n
