“Alhamdulillah, the employees can set aside a salary that can be channeled through Rumah Zakat for the Free Circumcision program for people in need, I hope the children present today can grow up and can replace us as employees at KPP Pratama Yogyakarta in the future,” said Mr Guntur Wijaya Edi in his speech.
“Rumah Zakat tries to take advantage of the children’s school holiday momentum for mass circumcision activities in the hope that it can become a means of filling their holidays for positive activities, therefore Rumah Zakat invites donators including KPP employees to participate in the Free Circumcision Donation program” concluded Ms. Warnitis As the branch manager of Rumah Zakat Yogyakarta.
After the opening ceremony ended the participants listened to the children’s stories by Likah and watched educative film while waiting for their turn to circumcise.
“I am very happy to be able to circumcise at Rumah Zakat, I can meet many friends and there is a fairy tale of a good child, the doctor is good and the circumcision does not hurt, thank you Rumah Zakat,” said Andi Azunur Kurniawan 11 years.
