JAKARTA, Indonesia, July 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- To commemorate Indonesia's National Children's Day and celebrate the 10th anniversary of Pizza Maker Junior, Pizza Hut Indonesia has partnered with TUKR, an Indonesian used cooking oil recycling company, to launch a special edition of its educational program that encourages children to learn through hands-on experiences while fostering environmental awareness.
For the past decade, Pizza Maker Junior has been one of Pizza Hut Indonesia's flagship educational initiatives, giving millions of children the opportunity to experience pizza making while developing creativity and confidence. Celebrating its 10th year, the program has evolved beyond culinary activities by introducing environmental education, in line with Pizza Hut Indonesia's Pizza Hut Peduli 8P corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiative.
Centered around the values of creating, caring, and appreciating, this year's program allows participants to explore the journey of food ingredients from locally sourced paprika farms supported by Pizza Hut Indonesia, while also learning about responsible used cooking oil management through educational activities with TUKR.
Through these experiences, children gain a better understanding of where food comes from before it reaches the dining table and discover that used cooking oil, often regarded as waste, can be responsibly collected and recycled into renewable energy, creating positive environmental impact. By combining interactive learning with fun experiences, Pizza Hut Indonesia and TUKR hope to encourage environmentally responsible habits from an early age.
Herryady, Local Store Manager of Pizza Hut Indonesia, said, "For the past 10 years, Pizza Maker Junior has been part of the learning journey of more than five million Indonesian children. Through this special edition, we want to offer a more meaningful experience—from making pizza and discovering where ingredients come from to understanding the importance of protecting our environment. We hope these values stay with them as they grow."
Adhi Putra Tawakal, Head of Brand & Partnership at TUKR, added, "Proper and sustainable management of used cooking oil by qualified and authorized organizations plays an important role in protecting public health, especially for children as Indonesia's future generation. At TUKR, we recycle used cooking oil into renewable fuel that delivers environmental benefits on a global scale. We appreciate Pizza Hut Indonesia's long-standing trust in partnering with us to responsibly manage its used cooking oil and help prevent misuse that could pose health risks."
As part of the National Children's Day celebration, Pizza Hut Indonesia is also introducing a special Pizza Maker Junior promotion. Families dining at Pizza Hut Restaurants who purchase one Regular or Large Pizza (any topping or crust) or a Sourdough Pizza will receive one complimentary Pizza Maker Junior package. Schools can also enjoy a group offer of five complimentary packages with every purchase of 20 Pizza Maker Junior packages.
Through this collaboration, Pizza Hut Indonesia and TUKR aim to continue creating meaningful learning experiences while inspiring more Indonesian children to become a generation that is creative, environmentally conscious, and appreciative of every learning journey.

JAKARTA, Indonesia, July 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- In fulfillment of its commitment to deliver meaningful societal impact, PT Pembiayaan Digital Indonesia (AdaKami) partnered with digital fundraising platform BenihBaik.com to construct clean water and sanitation facilities in Dusun Banjarsari, South Lampung. Through the AdaKami Peduli program, the initiative funded an 80-meter-deep borewell serving as the primary clean water source.
Data from the Lampung Provincial Government indicates that South Lampung Regency's clean water demand in 2026 is projected to reach approximately 1,900 liters per second—the fourth highest in Lampung Province¹. This substantial demand necessitates adequate, accessible clean water and proper sanitation infrastructure, particularly for Dusun Banjarsari residents. The AdaKami Peduli program provides access to water pump installations, storage tanks, distribution networks, and sanitation facilities.
Serving 37 households with a total population of 122 people, these facilities enable residents to access clean water previously scarce, especially during dry seasons. The program also fosters a healthier, more comfortable environment for the local community.
Bernardino Vega, CEO of AdaKami, stated this assistance distribution represents AdaKami's tangible environmental and social responsibility toward addressing community challenges.
"We hope the facilities constructed in Dusun Banjarsari will not only meet daily needs but also enhance public health quality over the long term," said Bernardino Vega.
Soleh, a Dusun Banjarsari resident, shared, "Previously, residents waited extended periods just to fill one water jug, and the water was poor quality and odorous. At our mosque, water was insufficient, let alone for surrounding residents without water sources. During dry seasons, we fetched water from even farther distances. Now, residents access abundant, quality water without dry season concerns. Friday prayers and religious activities have increased since water shortages are no longer feared."
Andy F. Noya, CEO & Founder of BenihBaik.com, commended AdaKami's dedication to providing clean water for Dusun Banjarsari residents. He added, "Clean water and proper sanitation are fundamental needs forming the foundation for health, productivity, and improved quality of life. We hope this program's benefits endure long-term and become a source of hope for Dusun Banjarsari households."
Through the AdaKami Peduli initiative, AdaKami reaffirms its commitment to ongoing societal contribution. By constructing clean water access and proper sanitation, AdaKami aims to deliver sustainable positive impact while inspiring collaborative efforts to enhance community quality of life across Indonesia.
