These in turn present scholarship programs, school supply assistance, and community-based learning centers, which volunteers run to provide tutoring and mentoring. Through a focus on education, Rumah Zakat Yogyakarta reports to create platforms for children to dream big and to, in turn, build a better future for themselves and their communities.
Health and Well-Being Programs
Health is also a very important issue they address. In Yogyakarta, Rumah Zakat organizes free health checkups and blood donation campaigns, and they also provide medical care for the ones that can’t afford proper treatment.
In regard to their health programs, what stands out is that they are very much into preventive care. Instead of waiting for illness to occur, they run healthy lifestyle campaigns, which also include clean water projects and nutrition guidance. This in turn means that what they are seeing is that the physical health of the community is at its best, which in turn supports the social and economic growth.
Economic Empowerment and Microbusiness Support
While charity gives quick relief, what they see as true transformation is through empowerment. At Rumah Zakat Yogyakarta they work very closely with small entrepreneurs, artisans, and local farmers to develop sustainable livelihoods.
Through the provision of microbusiness training, access to small-scale capital loans, and mentorship, they see families achieve self-sufficiency. For example, they see farmers taught improved agricultural practices, which in turn see women in the community trained in handicrafts, food production, and home-based businesses.
This approach is that of zakat, not as a mere act of charity but as an investment in human capital.
