Mitra Seni Indonesia galang dana bagi perajin batik dan “mbok gendong”
Mitra Seni Indonesia, a non-profit organization based in Indonesia, has recently launched a fundraising campaign to support local batik artisans and “mbok gendong” or traditional baby carriers makers. The campaign aims to provide financial assistance to these artisans who have been struggling due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Batik, a traditional Indonesian fabric, holds a special place in Indonesian culture and heritage. It is a symbol of identity and pride for many Indonesians. However, the pandemic has severely affected the livelihoods of batik artisans, as the demand for their products has significantly decreased.
Similarly, “mbok gendong” makers, who create traditional baby carriers that are widely used in Indonesian culture, have also been facing financial difficulties. With the closure of markets and restrictions on gatherings, these artisans have been unable to sell their products and provide for their families.
Mitra Seni Indonesia has recognized the struggles of these artisans and has taken action to support them during these challenging times. Through their fundraising campaign, they aim to raise funds to provide financial assistance, training, and resources to help these artisans sustain their livelihoods.
The organization is calling on the public to support their cause by donating to the campaign. Every donation, no matter how small, will make a difference in the lives of these artisans and help preserve Indonesia’s cultural heritage.
In addition to providing financial assistance, Mitra Seni Indonesia is also working to create new opportunities for these artisans by connecting them with potential buyers and promoting their products through online platforms.
By supporting local artisans and preserving traditional crafts such as batik and “mbok gendong”, Mitra Seni Indonesia is not only helping these artisans in their time of need but also safeguarding Indonesia’s rich cultural heritage for future generations.
