Yayasan Usaha Mulia (YUM) - Foundation for Noble Work - is a not-for-profit organisation that assists the poor and destitute in Indonesia through social welfare projects.

For more than 30 years we have been undertaking projects in the fields of Community Development, Education and Health that aim to assist Indonesians from poor backgrounds regardless of their ethnicity, religion, age or gender.

In that time there has been significant development in Indonesia and yet health and education levels remain among the lowest in Asia. Additionally, millions of Indonesian men, women and children continue to live below the poverty line, surviving on less than US$2 a day.

Our projects today work to address these issues, improving health and education levels and undertaking activities that assist families to generate additional income in the regions of Java, Kalimantan and Banda Aceh.

In all work that we do, we adhere to the YUM values of equity, inclusiveness, sustainability, transparency and working in a holistic manner. We also recognise the importance of faith in the lives of many and seek to meet both the external needs, such as health and education, and the internal needs, including emotional and spiritual, of all the people we work with.

YUM is able to operate these projects and provide support to destitute Indonesians thanks to the support from generous individuals and groups from within Indonesia and around the globe.

Whether it is through donating, sponsoring a child, providing in-kind support or simply spreading the YUM message, everybody can help. Please contact us to find out how you can assist in providing a better future for the poor and destitute in Indonesia.
