Entertaining the people affected by the Cianjur Earthquake with Oghel
The massive impact of the earthquake caused most of the houses to collapse, forcing them to take refuge in tents or disaster posts. Many of them lack basic necessities.
“The residents here still need baby supplies such as eucalyptus oil, tissues and others,” said Oghel.
Not only providing assistance, Oghel, Wilda and Eko also invited the residents affected by the disaster to chat together. Smiles radiated from their faces, not only because they felt helped by Dompet Dhuafa, but also because they were entertained and could laugh together.
