SMPIP Daarul Jannah established a relation with NPO Good! For rising social awareness in the Study Tour activity to Japan. Let's get to know more about NPO Good! and what are their activities.  

NPO Good! Is a Non-Profit Organization Global Organization of Dreamers which was founded with the purpose of living a better life "Good Life". In 2001 Mr. Koji Isoda formed NPO Good! as a place to volunteer which then in 2008 had a legal entity in the form of a Non-Profit Organization.

At the moment, NPO Good! has three camps in Japan which are in Nagano, Hiroshima, and Shizuoka and one camp in Sri Lanka. Each of these camps has a variety of activities. Most of the participants have a desire to volunteer to expand their horizons.   

Participants in the activities at NPO Good! This is very diverse both from students and workers. In an effort to raise social awareness, both the shy and the brave will be assisted and facilitated in this activity. Members of NPO Good! will accompany you and support you throughout the day, even if this is your first trip abroad.  

The excitement of volunteering with NPO Good! is extraordinary. Participants will follow the homestay according to the program they follow. Some homestay in the plantation area and do activities such as farming and helping with the harvest. There are also those who build roads and schools like in Sri Lanka. Being together as volunteers in a place that has never been met will make an unforgettable experience.

The visit of SMPIP Daarul Jannah students to NPO Good! was anything but boring. Students were warmly welcomed by its members. Interacting in English, Japanese, and also Indonesian which makes the atmosphere more interactive. Through sharing the activities of NPO Good! with interesting videos and sharing experiences from the volunteers, it is hoped that it can inspire students and raise their humanitarian spirit.   

Not only rising social awareness, besides sharing their humanitarian activities, the students and students of SMPIP Daarul Jannah also had a cultural exchange by performing traditional dances and Indonesian songs. Then the event was closed with a dinner together with members of NPO Good! there and exchanged conversation that made the atmosphere became unforgettable.  

Hopefully, this special meeting between SMPIP Daarul Jannah students and NPO GOOD! volunteer members will continue in the future. We also hope that NPO GOOD! volunteers can visit Indonesia!
