Dampak Orphan Sponsorship Program terhadap Anak Yatim Aceh: Kolaborasi Hasene dan Kafalah Indonesia

The orphan sponsorship program has become one of the significant forms of social intervention in improving the well-being of children who have lost their parents. This article discusses the impact of the Orphan Sponsorship Program implemented by Hasene and Kafalah Indonesia in supporting orphaned children in Aceh. We utilized a collaborative method involving Hasene International, Kafalah Indonesia, the Aceh government, academics (lecturers), and students. The primary objective of this initiative is to enhance community empowerment. The success of this activity is demonstrated by its positive impact on education, economic well-being, health, and the mental condition of orphans. Furthermore, the collaboration between Hasene and Kafalah Indonesia has increased the program's effectiveness through a community-based approach. This article recommends strengthening the program's capacity to ensure sustainability and broader impact, thereby contributing to several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including eradicating poverty, ending hunger, and providing quality education.
