Through the CSR program called “INDODAX for Indonesia: A Mission of Inclusive Health Service”, INDODAX continues its consistency in carrying out corporate social responsibility together with Ayobantu. This time, INDODAX focuses on two agendas,  general blood donation and general health services for underprivileged communities.

The lack of stock of blood bags at the Indonesian Red Cross (PMI) is one of the reasons for holding this activity. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the total need for blood bags in each country is ideally 2% of the total population.

With Indonesia’s population of 277.75 million people in 2022, the number of blood bags needed by Indonesia is estimated to be 5.56 million per year. Meanwhile, based on data from the Indonesian Red Cross (PMI), the blood stock held by blood donor units (UDD) throughout Indonesia was only 77,438 bags as of June 14 2023.

“This means that this number is still far below the estimated need for ideal blood bags according to WHO standards. “Therefore, as a Brand that cares for people, INDODAX held a blood donation event to help PMI obtain more donors,” said INDODAX CEO, Oscar Darmawan.

Oscar also said that every drop of donated blood is a valuable gift for people who receives it.

Thus, INDODAX together with the online donation platform Ayobantu held this event on November 15 2023 at the sports complex, The Saintuary Sports Hub, Central Jakarta. The blood collected will be managed by the Indonesian Red Cross (PMI) in Bekasi City to be given to those in need.

Moreover, the CSR program “INDODAX for Indonesia: A Mission of Inclusive Health Service” also gives general health checks for underprivileged communities which was carried out together with Ayobantu on 23 November 2023 in Kampung Nelayan, Cilincing-North Jakarta.

This program aimed at broader mass, health checks are not limited to certain ages. Through this activity, underprivileged communities can have health checks, such as medical check-ups, treatment, and health referrals.

Apart from getting free general health check-up services, participants will also get free food and medicines to maintain their health.

“We are very grateful to INDODAX which always work in synergy with Ayobantu. We will carry out this mandate to the right targets. “In the future, we hope that this CSR program will become widespread so it could cover more people in need,” concluded Ayobantu CEO, Agnes Yuliavitriani.
