Through sacrifice in the interior, Insan Bumi Mandiri reaches 41 thousand residents with farmers and local volunteers

A total of 2,109 goat equivalents have been distributed by Insan Bumi Mandiri (IBM) in the sacrificial program in the interior of 2025. This program reaches more than 41,974 beneficiaries in remote areas of Indonesia and vulnerable countries in Africa, such as Somalia and Uganda. This activity involved more than 24 partner institutions that entrusted the distribution of sacrifices to regions with limited access through the Bumi Mandiri people.

Sacrifice is channeled to more than 30 districts in East Nusa Tenggara Province (NTT), West Java, East Java and South Sumatra. The distribution process is carried out with a collaborative approach that empowering local small breeders, villagers, as well as volunteers from various regions in Indonesia. People in the city can also contribute through the online sacrificial platform of Bumi Mandiri Insan, which allows the sacrificial process to be carried out from anywhere transparently and affordable.

This sacrificial program not only provides food access, but also opens up economic opportunities for local farmers who have difficulty marketing livestock. The sacrificial animals used are the result of cooperation with small breeders scattered in a number of areas, with a fair price and a process that is in accordance with the Shari’a. In addition, the involvement of local volunteers is an important part of this ecosystem. They work together in the distribution of animals to remote areas that can only be reached on foot or cross the sea for hours.

One of them was felt by Buce, a small breeder from Nai Oni, Kupang, NTT. He revealed that four of his cattle were sold out thanks to the sacrificial program from IBM, as well as cows owned by members of other farmer groups.

“IBM buys directly from small breeders like us. My cattle are sold. The money can be used again for capital to buy cows and to send children to school,” said Mr. Buce, who can now continue his livestock business with more confidence.

Not only involves local residents, every year there are always some volunteers who depart directly from Bandung to go directly to the location of the sacrificial distribution. They distribute animals and document the atmosphere of sacrifice in the interior. The atmosphere of togetherness and the spirit of mutual cooperation became an impressive experience for volunteers for the first time to the location.

“If we immediately come to areas with limited access, it feels immediately felt once if the sacrifice that is distributed has a big impact. Mutual cooperation, the atmosphere of togetherness, to the distribution of fresh meat, all of them welcomed it,” said Fajar, volunteers from Bandung who first came to the 2025 sacrificial distribution location in Pota, East Nusa Tenggara.

Since it was first run in 2016, the sacrificial program in the interior by Insan Bumi Mandiri has become a bridge between the city and village community. Through the online sacrificial platform, IBM opens opportunities for the wider community to share, not only by sending sacrificial animals, but also sharing hopes, attention, and cross -distance care.

In the midst of distribution challenges in areas that are divided into island, difficult to reach vehicles, and minimal infrastructure, this program is still run consistently every year. The hope, the spirit of sharing continues not only during Eid al -Adha, but becomes an annual collective movement that presents food justice and the economic empowerment of the village community.

For people who want to maximize sacrificial worship every year, choosing sacrifice in the interior is a meaningful way to share more equally and fairly. Insan Bumi Mandiri provides a complete reporting system, ranging from photos, videos, conditions of distribution locations, to documentative reports after slaughtering. Not only that, Pekurban can also monitor their sacrifice real time through a tracking system that is integrated from the time of order until the slaughtering process is complete.

Now, sacrifice no longer has to be complicated. Enough from home, your kindness can reach thousands of residents in remote areas and cross continents. Explor of Mandiri Bumi Insan and other programs through www.insanbumimandiri.org.
