Indonesia is currently going through a devastating second Covid wave - with 4x the daily cases & deaths compared to the first wave.


Indonesia has reached 56,757 reported daily cases, and 1,205 daily deaths as of July 16th. More than 400,000 active cases were reported with about a quarter of them require oxygen to stay alive. 


We saw a similar situation in India during the second wave from March-June’21 and the devastation & impact on people's livelihoods was heartbreaking to see. 


Public-health experts have, for weeks, warned that we could face a surge worse than the one that caused India’s medical infrastructure to collapse in April and May. 


The Indonesian medical infrastructure is under severe stress, with a need for more than 17,000 oxygen concentrators to allow ~100,000 Indonesians to stay alive.


Help us to save lives, one breath at a time

The funds will be used to procure 10L oxygen concentrators that will be donated to over 200 hospitals. Oxygen concentrators under 10L are not sufficient for hospital use.

Our target is to procure 10,000 concentrators that can immediately impact 30,000 lives in a month and 7 Mn+ lives in their lifetime

As of 16/07/2021, we have procured 1,000 Oxygen Concentrators out of our 10,000 goal.


We aim to deliver 5,000 oxygen concentrations by early August, and another 5,000 by the end August 2021.  Each Oxygen Concentrator costs ~$1000 per unit.

BDO , a global accounting firm, has volunteered to audit the fund flows. Deliveries will be done by startups with logistic networks like Waresix  and Halodoc . Wargabantuwarga  will deploy volunteers to the hospitals to validate.

Indonesia’s startup ecosystem is coming together to act against this crisis

We are a neutral coalition created by the Indonesian startup ecosystem to fight the pandemic. We have united to provide hospitals with much-needed Oxygen Concentrators. Existing initiatives such as wargabantuwarga , a covid information aggregator site, and Indonesia Pasti Bisa , an existing oxygen concentrator fundraise program, are working together for this single goal.


We also partner with government, best-in-class operators & public figures. We are orchestrating an end-to-end process for deploying 10k+ OCs, and your job is to close the funding gap.


As fellow humans, we urge you to come forward to save lives! Help us to make Indonesians breathe again.
