The Orange Sun Project

On September 7, 2018, we had fun teaching arts and social skills to students of SD Muhammadiyah 6 Makassar. We also donated school packages to the students. They really appreciated and were happy with our activities.

Our recent work in TOSP

July 13, 2016 marks The Orange Sun Project 3rd Anniversary. For that, we wanted to share our happiness with children. As the city of Makassar consists of many islands, we did our project in an island near Makassar, called Kodingareng Lompo island.

We had some troubles in making this event such as not getting permission from the school in the island. Luckily, the local government and the people supported us. The subsdistrict head even permitted us to use his place to hold the event.

Kids and the local people were so excited. Some students and parents wanted to skip school for this event but we said 'school is more important!'

Like the event before, we invited kids to play and learn some art. We encouraged them to start having their a dream. Some students said they wanted to be a doctor, a police, or even a teacher. We were surprised by one of the student, Aflah. He said that he wanted to be a garbage man. At the young age, he already knows that garbage is the main problem in his neighbourhood and the island where he lives. We were so proud of him and the other kids too.

13 Juli 2016 kemarin merupakan ulang tahun The Orange Sun Project yang ketiga. Untuk itu, kami ingin berbagi kebahagiaan dengan anak-anak. Makassar memiliki beberapa p**au, oleh karenanya, proyek sosial ini dlakukan sedikit berbeda, yakni di p**au Kodingareng Lompo.

Kami menghadapi banyak masalah ketika melaksanakan acara ini, seperti masalah perizinan dari sekolah yang tidak diperoleh. Untungnya, pemerintah lokal dan masyarakat disana mendukung kami. Bapak lurahnya bahkan mengizinkan kami untuk menggunakan baruga untuk acara ini.

Anak-anak dan masyarakat disana sangat tertarik dengan acara sosial ini. Bahkan ada siswa dan orang tua yang tidak ingin ke sekolah demi ikut acara ini. Namun, kami memberi tahu mereka kalau sekolah lebih penting.

Seperti acara sebelumnya, kami mengundang anak-anak untuk bermain dan belajar seni. Kami ingin mengetahui cita-cita ketika mereka sudah besar. Beberapa anak ingin menjadi dokter, polisi, atau bahkan guru. Kami tersentuh ketika salah satu dari mereka, Aflah, bercita-cita menjadi seorang tukang sampah. Di umur yang masih muda, dia sudah mengerti kalau sampah merupakan salah satu permasalahan di lingkungan dan p**a tempat dia tinggal. Kami sangat bangga dengannya dan anak-anak lain.

Today (11/5) we spent some times with students of Madrasah Ibtidaiyah (Islamic Elementary School) of Nurul Haq. Though, some parts of the event were disorganized, we were really satisfied and proud of what we did. These kids were very enthusiastic when they made their artwork and explained about their work. Through art, they learnt a lot of things. That is what we taught today. As a gift for their enthusiasm, we also donated some school packages to them.

This is the most recent project from The Orange Sun Project! To celebrate Indonesia's 70th Proclamation Day, we donated 70 school packages in two different schools in Makassar; SD Inp Bitoa (20/8) and SD Negeri Lakkang (21/8). We also taught them critical thinking, teamwork and leadership value through art.

Berikut merupakan foto-foto dari proyek terbaru The Orange Sun Project! Untuk memperingati 70 tahun Hari Proklamasi Indonesia, kami menyumbangkan 70 paket alat tulis di dua sekolah berbeda di Makassar yakni SD Inp. Bitoa (pada 20/8) dan SD Negeri Lakkang (pada 21/8). Kami mengajarkan mereka tentang berpikir kritis, kerjasama tim, dan nilai kepemimpinan melalui seni.

Hey folks! How have you been doing? Wow! It's been more than a year we didn't make any post here. Don't worry! Our club is still active. In fact, after our first project, we also donated some stuffs to KB Tunas Muda in May and Sikola Mangkasara in October last year.

Hi teman! Apa kabar? Wow! Sudah lebih setahun kami tidak memposting apapun disini. Jangan kawatir! Klub kita ini masih aktif. Bahkan, setelah proyek pertama, kami juga telah mendonasikan beberapa kebutuhan kepada KB Tunas Muda pada bulan Mei dan Sikola Mangkasara pada bulan Oktober tahun lalu.

The Orange Sun Project took its baby step by donating school needs to an informal school in Makassar, Kelas Belajar Oky Makassar. The school has about 30 students. Every Sunday, they learn about nutrition and living a healthy life; knowledge that is not taught in any public school in Makassar and even Indonesia. We are really proud to support them and we send many thanks to all the donors or their kind contributions!
