Plebs, I set aside a small donation from you for a child who is a victim of the flood disaster. Unfortunately, he was involved in a traffic accident while playing with his friend in the small alley in front of his house. The 2-year-old child is now being treated in intensive care at Meuraxa Hospital, Banda Aceh (the capital of Aceh Province). He has undergone four operations on the left side of his skull, which was torn after being hit by a motorcycle. The perpetrator showed no responsibility after the accident. The child’s mother, Juliana, explained that her child had the accident while playing with his friend, while Juliana and her husband were cleaning their home that had been submerged in mud after the flood struck their village of Meunasah Trieng, North Aceh (about 6–7 hours from Banda Aceh). At first, the child was treated at a local hospital in North Aceh before being referred to a better facility in the provincial capital for critical pediatric care. My team and I from Bitcoin For Humanity stopped by to talk with Juliana when we delivered a small amount of aid in the form of baby formula and diapers for the child. We also purchased rice, drinking water, and some instant noodles to support the parents’ food needs while staying at the hospital. Before leaving the hospital, I also gave cash to Juliana so she would have money to buy necessities while staying there. She doesn’t have a home to return to in the capital, and her husband is just a regular farmer with limited means. Total donation amount for the child and the family of the flood disaster victim: IDR 843,400 (≈ USD 50).

Before the disaster struck, Kelitu Sintep Village was well known for producing high-quality avocados. The fruits were large, with thick flesh and great taste. Sadly, the landslide destroyed dozens of hectares of avocado plantations owned by farmers in Kelitu Sintep. They now have to start planting again from scratch. My team and I from Bitcoin for Humanity were given avocados as a gift by the landslide survivors, as a few of the plantations were still spared from the disaster.

Trauma Healing for Disaster-Affected Children in Kelitu Sintep In Kelitu Sintep Village, Central Aceh, after delivering the donations, we invited the children to take part in fun challenge games, where they came forward and showed their skills. The activities continued with a movie screening about the environment titled “The Forest Guardians.” After the movie, the children answered questions about the characters and the story. Those who answered correctly received snacks as rewards. At the end of the trauma healing session, all children received snacks and school bags containing notebooks, drawing books, colored pencils, and pens. We hope they can recover from the trauma of the disaster and regain their enthusiasm for learning at school.

We then purchased and delivered basic food supplies for them. In Kelitu Sintep and Uning Mas, we also distributed ready-to-eat meals (traditional Acehnese food). These food purchases were not funded by Bitcoiners’ donations, but were entrusted by other donors. We collaborated in distributing them together to the victims. Additional basic food supplies were also delivered to friends who are disaster victims living in Bener Meriah and Takengon. We managed to visit some of their homes, though not all. There were about five people in total, each receiving one bag of rice and one tray of eggs. For those we could not visit, the supplies were left at a designated pickup location. Detailed purchase prices of donated items and other travel-related expenses are shown in the attached images. --- Endless thanks to the Plebs who donated sats to help victims of floods and landslides in Aceh, Indonesia 🇮🇩. 🙏
