Building Bonds Through Prayer and Action

The alumni of SMA Boedi Oetomo, class of 1987, have always carried the spirit of camaraderie and solidarity. Our prayer group not only strengthens our faith but also serves as a platform for meaningful humanitarian efforts.

The Essence of Our Gatherings

Our family gatherings allow us to reconnect and rekindle friendships, but they serve a deeper purpose:

• Strengthen Community Ties: By sharing meals and experiences, we build relationships that extend beyond mere acquaintanceship.
• Spiritual Growth: Together in prayer, we find comfort and inspiration that encourages personal and collective growth.

Charity Initiatives: Making a Difference

Each year, our prayer group dedicates time and resources to support those in need, particularly through:

• Orphanage Charity Events: We organize fundraisers and donation drives to support local orphanages.
• Food and Clothing Drives: During special occasions, we gather essentials and distribute them to families struggling to make ends meet.

Examples of Past Events

• Annual Charity Gala: Last year, we raised over $5,000, directly benefiting the XYZ Orphanage.
• Seasonal Drives: Our winter clothing drive successfully provided warm jackets to 150 children in need.

Other Humanitarian Activities

Our commitment to serving others extends beyond charity. We actively engage in:

• Community Clean-Up Days: A great way to improve our environment while bonding with fellow alumni.
• Health Awareness Workshops: Hosting seminars on topics like mental health and nutrition to benefit our community.

• Volunteer Your Time: Join us at our events and lend a helping hand.
• Donate Resources: Whether it’s clothing, food, or monetary donations, every bit makes a difference.
