The Healthy Step with Confidence has achieved impressive results in the slum areas of Jakarta, Indonesia.

1. nutritious meals for strengthened bodies and minds

A major success of the programme was the provision of nutritious meals for children in need. The children were not only given food, but also the energy to actively participate in school life. This step helped to improve their physical health and also encouraged their mental development and presence in the classroom.

2. appropriate shoes and school bags for active participation in class

Another key success of the programme was the provision of appropriate shoes and school bags. This not only enabled the children to move around more safely, but also to carry their educational materials with ease. This encouraged their active participation in sports activities and school projects, increasing their confidence and social inclusion.

3. community integration and sustainable impact

The programme has successfully involved local schools and community organisations to maximise its impact. Working with the community has enabled the programme to better understand the children's needs and address them in a targeted way. Monitoring and evaluation of the programme has shown that not only has the children's physical health improved, but their active participation in school life and their social skills have also been strengthened.

The programme has made a significant contribution to improving the quality of life and educational opportunities of these children. These successes are a testament to the positive change that is possible through targeted programmes and the support of CRN's donors.
