BRIDS Shares Hundreds of Basic Food Packages in 8 Cities in Indonesia

Jakarta, April 1st, 2024 – In commemorating the holy month of Ramadhan and providing added value to the surrounding community, BRI Danareksa Sekuritas ("BRIDS") contributed to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities entitled "Sharing Happiness with the BRI Group" in the form of distributing 470 basic food packages worth IDR 105,000,000 to people in 8 cities in Indonesia.

In this activity, BRIDS through all representative offices throughout Indonesia also collaborated with the BRI Swakarya Cooperative and local BRILink Agents to ensure the quality of the basic food packages provided, as well as ensuring that distribution was on target to people in need in the area around the BRIDS office, namely Jakarta, Bandung, Yogyakarta, Palembang, Surabaya, Medan, Semarang and Makassar.

BRIDS President Director Laksono Widodo said that this activity is a form of the Company's commitment to giving back to the surrounding community and giving meaning to Indonesia, through CSR programs which are also guided by the Sustainability Development Goals (SDGs) promoted by the United Nations (UN), namely SDGs number 1 and 2, which focus on efforts to eradicate poverty and end hunger.

"In addition to providing added value to aid recipients, we hope that the involvement of the Koperasi Swakarya and BRILink Agents in this case as providers of basic food packages can also support improving the community's MSME economy, which is in line with the BRI Group's mission to support the community's economy," said Laksono.

For your information, in 2023 BRIDS disbursed funds of around IDR 400 million to contribute to community development & involvement, increasing community education and literacy, as well as environmental preservation.

"This year, through the CSR program "BRIDS Cares" BRIDS is committed to contributing more than last year by carrying out various other CSR activities, collaborating with volunteers, organizations and other stakeholders, to contribute and have a greater positive impact throughout Indonesia," concluded Laksono.
