PT Teledata Indonesia conducted TONO: Teledata Operation Night Owl.
TONO is the third Charity event organized by Team Indonesia as part of its commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility.
The mission of TONO was to distribute food packages to mothers and children living in the streets of Jakarta.
Jakarta, being the capital city of Indonesia, has a growing population of 8.5 Million people, out of which an estimated 300,000 people are surviving below the poverty line with less than $1.00 a day.
The planning for TONO started more than two months ago. 5 key areas were identified as having the most street children and mothers:
1. Kelapa Gading 2. Karet Bivak 3. Blok M 4. Kampung Rambutan 5. Grogol

500 packets of meal boxes – each containing rice, egg, chicken, mineral water, pastry and medicine – were prepared by the employees on June 28. Just before 6 pm on that day, 40 Indonesian employees were mobilized into 5 Convoys to depart from the office for the 5 locations. Before setting out, our EVP Pak Keith gave a speech to the employees. He said that it was important that we do our part to make a difference in some people’s lives. TONO was such an opportunity for us to feed 500 people so that they do not need to go to sleep hungry – even if it was for one night!
TONO ended at around 8 pm. All 500 boxes of meal packets were given out to children and mothers living on the streets.
Many employees commented that they saw women and children living in deplorable conditions: people were sleeping under bridges, highways and in the park, and they were exposed to poor sanitation, rain and mosquitoes!
