Mass circumcision health program at Masjid Raya Al Insan

On Saturday, 21 December 2024, Yayasan Inspirasi Indonesia Membangun (YIIM) and PT Insight Investments Management collaborated with the Welfare Board of Masjid Raya Al Insan to hold a mass circumcision program for children from low-income families, orphans, and the wider community.

The activity took place in the hall of Masjid Raya Al Insan on Jalan Patal Senayan 1, Kebayoran Lama, South Jakarta. It formed part of YIIM’s Social, Humanitarian, and Religious program and Insight’s health pillar under its commitment to transform investments into social impact. YIIM and Insight provided funding for the medical team’s services.

The opening began at 8:00 a.m. with a Quran recitation. Ari Kuncoro, Chair of the mosque’s Welfare Board, thanked YIIM and Insight for supporting the annual activity. He explained that the program was organized for disadvantaged families and orphans and hoped it would benefit the children while bringing blessings to the donors.

Fifty boys between four and 14 years old received circumcision services. The medical process was delivered in collaboration with PT Sunat Modern Indonesia and the Jakarta regional association of modern circumcision practitioners, DPW APPMI. Twenty healthcare personnel supported the procedures.

After treatment, every participant received medicine and a goodie bag. The parent of Abdullah, one of the participating children, said the assistance had eased the family’s burden because their financial circumstances had previously prevented them from arranging the procedure.

The program improved access to an important health service for families facing economic constraints. It contributes to SDG 3: Good Health and Well-being and reflects the continuing commitment of YIIM and Insight to deliver practical benefits and encourage solidarity in communities across Indonesia.

Salam Inspirasi!
