SOUTH HALMAHERA – PT Gelora Mandiri Membangun (GMM) has once again demonstrated a commitment to people development through its latest Corporate Social Contribution (CSC) program, a school bag donation to 40 high-achieving students in South West Gane District, South Halmahera, North Maluku.
These bags were provided to students across two high schools: Nurul Hasan High in Sekely Village and South Halmahera Public High 27 in Inner Gane Village. Each school was allocated 20 bags for 20 students following a strict data-collection process that ensured the donations were distributed to those in need and who have shown achievements in and out of class.
A symbolic distribution ceremony was held on March 20, 2026 by GMM’s CSC team. This event was attended by school representatives, village officials, and other locals. Warmth and camaraderie filled the air, reflecting the good synergy between GMM and local communities.
Inner Gane Village leader, Risman Dulhadi, praised the company’s support. This program, he added, tangibly benefits students and encourages them to make more achievements going forward.
“We greatly appreciate PT GMM’s support for our children’s education. This aid is not only tangibly beneficial, it motivates them [students] to continue excelling [in their respective fields],” Risman said in a written statement on Wednesday (4/8/2026).
GMM believes education lays the groundwork for self-sufficiency and competitiveness in society. That’s why the company continues to roll out life-enhancing social programs, particularly where it operates.
This CSC program allows PT GMM to support education, the social sector, and community empowerment as part of its sustainable business practices. It underscores that the best investment for the future lies not only in natural resource management, but also in youth development — as this demographic group drives change in Indonesia. (PR)
