One of our latest campaigns, "My Waste, My Responsibility," combines health and the environment. Poor waste management contaminates water, spreads disease, and damages land. Through posters, training, and door-to-door outreach, we empower communities to protect their health.

True stories. Real people. Humanitarian action in motion.
Here you’ll find stories from the field—100% real, 100% original. Every article is written by us, by those who live these moments, walk these roads, and treat these illnesses. We write them by hand, after the long days, often from tents or remote villages, because we believe in showing what’s real.
The people, the lives, the wounds, the repairs—this is not fiction. This is our daily reality in ultra-rural Indonesia. Every photo is taken by us. Every word comes from those who act. From emergency responses and clean water to child health and malaria cases, these stories reflect both the daily struggles and the incredible strength of those we serve.
Our News page is more than just updates. It’s a record of direct action. A collection of emotions, medical cases, construction progress, and social encounters. We don’t write for clicks—we write for those who care, those who want to know, and those who support our mission.
It’s raw, human, sometimes difficult, but always true. Read them, share them, let them move you. This is how change begins—with knowledge, emotion, and connection.

Kawan Sehat wound care in remote villages saves lives
In this image Kawan Sehat wound care happens on a bamboo floor where clinics are days away.

This is how primary medicine prevents funerals.
Hambarita water reservoir plaques – eight named tanks
This picture shows Hambarita water reservoir plaques resting on the grass moments before installation. Each plate carries a local name because water is treated like kin.
