Extending Support to People with Disabilities at YPAC

Building inclusivity means creating a space where every individual, regardless of their limitations, feels accepted, valued, and has equal opportunities to grow.  

This message is what SG Finance aims to convey through its support for people with disabilities, as a tangible commitment to building a more equitable and compassionate society.  

This support was demonstrated by providing a donation of IDR 100,000,000 (one hundred million rupiah) to purchase special assistive devices for the Foundation for the Development of Disabled Children (YPAC) Jakarta. The donation was handed over directly by Denny Yo, Director of Operations at SG Finance, on Thursday, November 28, 2024.  

The Foundation for the Development of Disabled Children (YPAC) is a nonprofit organization focused on nurturing the potential and independence of individuals with physical disabilities, particularly those with Cerebral Palsy (CP).  

Initially, YPAC’s services were aimed at addressing polio cases, but over time, they expanded to include cases of cerebral palsy and developmental disorders affecting physical and sensory functions.  

YPAC’s collaboration partners include Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, EKI Dance Company, and several universities, both public and private, involved in education, therapy services, psychological consultations, and orthotics prosthetics, such as Indonesia University, Esa Unggul University, Ministry of Heath Polytechnic, and others.  

The donation from SG Finance will primarily be used to assist YPAC Jakarta students who are in urgent need of special assistive devices.  

The required assistive devices vary and include AFOs (ankle-foot orthoses), study desks and chairs, walkers, CP wheelchairs, adaptive wheelchairs, hand backslaps, adaptive seating, adaptive electric wheelchairs, chest belts, neck collars, scoliosis corsets, and hearing aids.  

This donation is expected to provide meaningful support to students and children in need while benefiting the broader community.
