Access to clean water, adequate sanitation, and foundational hygiene practices forms the cornerstone of public health, child development, and sustainable community resilience. In rural and developing regions, addressing sanitation challenges requires a coordinated approach that bridges basic infrastructure with long-term behavioral change.

At SD YPK Rafidin, a comprehensive School Sanitation and Hygiene Campaign was conducted to introduce and reinforce Clean and Healthy Living Behaviors (Perilaku Hidup Bersih dan Sehat / PHBS) among primary school students and educators. Central to the campaign is the slogan: “Sekolahku Sehat, Sekolah Sehat Berawal dari Perilaku yang Sehat” (My School is Healthy; A Healthy School Begins with Healthy Behavior) The educational sessions engaged students through practical demonstrations and interactive discussions, focusing on: Empowering Households: Distribution of Family Hygiene Kits Recognizing that school-based hygiene education must be mirrored at home, a targeted aid initiative was launched under the program Hygiene Kits for Families to Support Behaviour Change.

Yayasan Karsa Jadeva Indonesia melaksanakan Program Makanan Tambahan (PMT) bagi anak-anak di wilayah Kabupaten Klaten sebagai bagian dari upaya peningkatan status gizi anak dan pencegahan masalah gizi sejak dini. Program ini selaras dengan Tujuan Pembangunan Berkelanjutan atau Sustainable Development Goals, khususnya tujuan Zero Hunger, yang menekankan pemenuhan pangan dan gizi yang cukup bagi seluruh lapisan masyarakat. Nutrigrow Pelaksanaan Program PMT difokuskan di wilayah Cawas dan dijalankan melalui enam posyandu yang menjadi titik layanan di tingkat desa. Program ini menyasar anak-anak, khususnya balita yang berada pada kelompok berisiko stunting, serta keluarga yang membutuhkan dukungan pemenuhan gizi. Melalui pemberian makanan tambahan berbasis pangan lokal secara rutin, yayasan berupaya membantu memenuhi kebutuhan gizi anak sekaligus mendorong pola konsumsi yang lebih sehat di tingkat keluarga. Pemanfaatan bahan pangan lokal dipilih agar kegiatan PMT lebih sesuai dengan potensi daerah dan dapat diterapkan secara berkelanjutan oleh masyarakat. Selain pemberian makanan tambahan, program ini juga dilengkapi dengan edukasi gizi keluarga yang menyasar ibu hamil, ibu menyusui, dan pengasuh anak. Edukasi dilakukan bersamaan dengan kegiatan posyandu dan mencakup pemahaman gizi seimbang, pemantauan berat badan anak, serta pengenalan pengolahan pangan lokal bernilai gizi. Pelaksanaan program dilakukan secara berbasis komunitas dengan melibatkan kader posyandu, pemerintah desa, serta mitra lokal. Keterlibatan berbagai pihak ini diharapkan dapat memperkuat peran masyarakat dalam upaya pencegahan masalah gizi dan mendukung tumbuh kembang anak secara berkelanjutan di tingkat desa. Program Makanan Tambahan ini menjadi bagian dari komitmen Yayasan Karsa Jadeva Indonesia dalam mendukung pemenuhan hak anak atas pangan bergizi dan kesehatan yang layak, sekaligus berkontribusi pada upaya penurunan masalah gizi di Kabupaten Klaten.
