PH Alumni & Corporate Relations Department facilitates Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program from PT. Lippo Karawaci to support the Foster Parents Programs for students of Lentera Harapan School (SLH). CSR is specifically done by program participants of Management Development Program (MDP), PT. Lippo Karawaci consisting of 20 people, over three days 26-28 October 2015 in the form of promotional programs for students of SLH Foster Parents Program. In three days they managed to get 111 foster parents who want to participate to help students of SLH.

Quoted from Lippo Village, School Lantern Hope (SLH) starts from the vision of the founder YPPH, late Dr. Johannes Oentoro and Dr. (Hon) James T. Riady, to bless Indonesia by establishing a quality school for all levels of society, including children who cannot afford in terms of economy. Since 2005, SLH has been established in various cities in Indonesia, namely Nias, Lampung, Koja, Curug, Mamit, Papua, Kupang, Ambon, Medan, Toraja and Palopo. SLH operates properly through financial support from donors, businesses, schools under YPPH and Foster Parents Program.

On The success of the MDP team in collecting foster parents, the Lantern Hope School in collaboration with the UPH Alumni & Corporate Relations Department, on  November 20, 2015, held a thanksgiving fellowship with PT. Lippo Karawaci, especially for the team of Lippo Management Development Program, which has been providing assistance and support for students of SLH. The event was also attended by representatives of several companies participating supports OTA program, such as PT. TMD Lippo Karawaci, MaxxBox, and PT. Matahari.

On that occasion, Gunawaty Tjioe, B.Ed., M.Pd., Ph.D., School System Coordinator SDH / SLH, expressed his gratitude and highly appreciate what the team MDP did in helping educate Indonesia. “I never go to a place that is not have yet been reached by education at all, and it is very different from the areas that is readily accessible in education. Children can be formed in terms of faith, character and knowledge. I hope all of you can become the motor so that there are more people who support our mission in educating Indonesia,” she said.

Further remarks were also given by Norita Alex, Talent Admin Director of PT. Lippo Karawaci, who says that she is very proud of the MDP team for the effort and hard work done during the three days and getting 111 foster parents for SLH. Norita is also the initiator for this program to be done. “For me education is very important. I was sad when I visited some of the SLH, in mamit for example, many parents even for 5000 rupiah alone aren?t able to pay. Therefore I encourage the children to see and take care with the surroundings. So they will not be leaders are only concerned with their own interests, but also generous and care about others,” she said.

One of the MDP Team who are alumni of UPH, Belinda (Management / 2011) also says, “All my life, I’ve got everything good from God, it is now time for me to go jump out care for others in need. While we still can, let’s do something, because no matter how small, it is very meaningful to them,” she said.

The event continued with a suave and lunch. (FC/mf)
