Linking up with JIS’s Microfinance Club

WEclimb Indonesia has collaborated with JIS’s Microfinance Club to aid the struggles of local entrepeneurs during the pandemic. With the creation of the Penjait Kita (Our Tailors) Social program, we worked alongside the Ancora Foundation for their teacher empowerment project. With the funds provided by their organisation, Microfinance and WEclimb supply tailor businesses with capital and sustainable cloth for the making of 3,000 covid protecting masks. These masks have been distributed to various secondary schools and kindergartens across West Java in hopes of preserving the health of students and educators.

WEclimb and Penjait Kita hosted a webinar with Ancora Foundation. We discussed about the importance of SMEs in the Indonesian Economy and ways schools can implement specific teachings to ignite the entrepreneural spirit in the education system. Dozens of teachers from West Java attended. Furthermore, we held a mask handover to an Ancora Foundation representative (Pak Zakky) where the COVID protecting masks made by tailor businesses were now given for distribution.
