Case Study
A 2007 survey by Indonesian Ministry of Social Affairs estimated that 12 Cities in Java have over 250,000 homeless children. Jakarta alone is estimated to have over 30,000 homeless children on it’s streets. Kids nowadays, living in midst of lavish life that they can get almost everything that they want. We can see that almost all primary school children already own the latest gadgets and other expensive toys that they want. On the other hand, there are kids that aren’t so lucky unlike us, that they can’t get everything that they want easily and even have problem to afford their meals, good education, health matters, and proper shelter to go through their day. To sum it up, there’s still much social problems around us that we still don’t aware of. Of all the problems above, we decide to solve it by raise the awareness by create a platform that can help people that in need to support their life so that they can share the happiness of living a better life.

Story behind the name
“Rich kids gave us their old clothes. They were the best clothes we ever had. We were these very pure, naive, poor children. The rich kids called us a lot of names but it never bothered us because we didn’t know what the words meant.” What a tearful statement, that’s why we really appreciate a core value of sharing and know that many people are often ignorance to social issues around them, we need to raise the awareness so people share and help other people in need. As a creative people, we believe in art and we believe that art can make a change. And that is also what inspire us to help other people in need. We came up with a name, lovestrong that defines a strong feeling of love and compassion towards children which gathered together as one to support, give hope and as a warm shelter for children.
