– Reconstructs school in mountainous Cianjur region, improves local Indonesian education environment
SEOUL, South Korea, June 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The KT&G Social Welfare Foundation improved education infrastructure for Harapan Kasih Bangsa Elementary and Middle School in Cianjur, Indonesia, and held a reopening ceremony on the 10th (local time).
Harapan Kasih Bangsa Elementary and Middle School is located in the outskirts of a mountainous area located three hours by car from Jakarta. The school has suffered from poor learning conditions, having to hold classes in morning and afternoon groups, ever since the earthquake in 2022 destroyed some buildings and disrupted classes.
The KT&G Social Welfare Foundation collaborated with Happy People to demolish the original building and replace it with a new two-story building with classrooms. The foundation also laid a foundation for a more stable learning environment for the local children by enhancing the general infrastructure, including teachers' offices, the program room, scientific equipment, sanitation facilities, and sports ground.
Around 160 participants, including those from KT&G Social Welfare Foundation, Happy People, local Office of Education, and the school, joined the reopening ceremony to commemorate a new beginning for the new school.
The rebuilding project is part of the local-centric social contribution activities that has been ongoing for over 10 years. By dispatching global volunteer groups since 2012, the KT&G Social Welfare Foundation has continuously provided residential and education infrastructure improvement support.
The Foundation actively conducts various social responsibility programs in Indonesia. It has been operating a "global scholarship program" for talented students in Indonesia and other global locations for 8 years, aiding a total of 1,500 students as of last year.
In Surabaya, the foundation completed the refurbishing project of the "KT&G Scholarship Foundation Korean Center" this year. The center provides Korean education courses and diverse culture programs for local residents.
A KT&G Social Welfare Foundation spokesperson commented that "by conducting social responsibility activities, the KT&G Social Welfare Foundation has contributed to regional growth in various global locations including in Indonesia. The Foundation will continue to realize sustainable social values as a global citizen in the future."
