PKH Exists for the Underprivileged

If calculated on paper, family earning only 20 thousands to 30 thousands rupiah per day seems it quite difficult to support nine family members. But in fact, a lot of low-income families are able to support their children, even sending them to school until they finish 12 years or even going to college.

Like the family's story on the slopes of Mount Lawu, precisely in Jamus, Ngawi. The majority of local residents work as tea pickers with an average income of only 10 thousands to 15 thousands rupiah each day. The presence of the Family Hope Program (PKH) in the area is certainly very helpful for the underprivileged community in meeting their daily needs, including the needs of their children's schools. PKH social assistance is a form of government presence to ensure that underprivileged families in Indonesia can live properly, and their children can attend school until high/vocational school graduates.
