JAKARTA – The excitement of the month of Ramadan increased in the second week. This was in line with the “Symphony of Iftar” event as a Ramadan Festival held by Dompet Dhuafa with Travelounge, PPJI (Indonesian Food Service Company Association), and CIBIS Park which took place from March 12-14, 2025.

This festival comes with a myriad of activities, ranging from educational activities such as da’wah studies, talk shows, disaster mitigation simulations by the Dompet Dhuafa Disaster Management Center (DMC) and cooking demonstrations by Lotte Mart, Cheap Redemption Markets to Free Physical and Mental Health Screenings from the Dompet Dhuafa Free Health Service (LKC).

In addition, to the right of the main stage, Dompet Dhuafa presented the Podcast Bertamasya in the Ngetem Podcast edition. There, visitors could chat about many things regarding kindness and humanity with Dompet Dhuafa.

This activity was observed to be more lively with the presence of Gilang Dayaganggu and Nyonyo Erma – two comedians at Symphony of Iftar on Thursday (13/03/2025). They invited laughter from visitors during iftar. The atmosphere became warm.

I am happy to be able to contribute to entertaining and being part of spreading benefits with Dompet Dhuafa,” said Gilang Dayaganggu, one of the comedians who entertained the visitors of Symphony of Iftar.

On the third day, the Play and Pray session was the mainstay to entertain the orphans who attended the Symphony of Iftar. One of them came from three friends named Nabila (10), Nayla (11) and Zahra (12) who claimed to enjoy spending time at the Symphony of Iftar.

“It’s fun, I was just playing at Play and Pray. Playing slides, flying fox, swings, jumping around with my friends, Nabila and Nayla. Then after breaking the fast here, we also got gifts. I’m so happy!” exclaimed Zahra, Friday (03/14/2025).

Social charity activities through bazaars and music concerts themselves become intermediaries for conveying acts of kindness, said Dompet Dhuafa Creative Content Manager, Dedi Fadlil. According to him, music is a universal language that can be accepted by all circles. He hopes that many people will be inspired to continue Dompet Dhuafa’s milestone of kindness by donating to those in need.

“We hope that through this Symphony of Iftar, we can raise awareness of humanitarian issues and invite everyone to share blessings, especially through music, which is a universal language. We have done something similar before, for example Sounds of Humanity. So, just wait for other similar activities! Thanks to the collaborators who helped make the Symphony of Iftar run smoothly!” explained Dedi, Friday (14/03/2025). (Dompet Dhuafa)
