In the aftermath of the devastating earthquake that struck Cianjur, West Java, The Water Jars has extended a helping hand to support the affected communities. Known for its commitment to clean water access and community well-being, the organization quickly mobilized to deliver essential aid to those in urgent need.
The earthquake, which measured 5.6 on the Richter scale, left hundreds injured and displaced thousands of families. Homes were reduced to rubble, and basic necessities such as food, water, and sanitation became scarce.
In response, The Water Jars launched an emergency relief initiative titled “Standing with Cianjur”. The program focused on distributing clean drinking water, portable water jars, water purification kits, and hygiene essentials to shelters and temporary camps across the affected areas.
“In times of crisis, access to safe water can mean the difference between life and death,” said [Spokesperson Name], Head of Community Outreach at The Water Jars. “Our mission has always been rooted in compassion, and we stand in solidarity with the people of Cianjur.”
Over the span of three days, more than 2,000 water jars and 1,500 hygiene kits were distributed to families, alongside educational materials on safe water handling and disease prevention. Local volunteers and health workers were also involved in the initiative to ensure smooth and respectful distribution.
This emergency effort marks The Water Jars’ continued dedication to social impact and environmental care in Southeast Asia. Beyond disaster relief, the organization also runs long-term programs aimed at building water infrastructure and promoting sustainable living in rural communities.
To support ongoing relief operations, The Water Jars encourages individuals and organizations to donate or volunteer. Every contribution, big or small, can help rebuild lives and restore hope.
