ISDI participated in the 2026 National Intellectual Disability Swimming Championship. This championship was organized by Special Olympics Indonesia (SOIna) in collaboration with Perkumpulan Lions Indonesia Multi Distrik 307. With the theme “Mengarungi Gelombang, Menaklukkan Batas Menuju Prestasi” and held at Bulungan Swimming Pool, South Jakarta. ISDI students had previously trained to give their best in the swimming competition. The enthusiasm and enthusiasm of the students was very great and all participants won medals from Perkumpulan Lions Indonesia Multi Distrik 307.

ISDI was invited to the Cap Go Meh event for Grandpa and Special Children at the Eka Ria Restaurant, Central Jakarta. ISDI performed a traditional dance with a medley of songs sung Gong Xi Fa Cai. The children were very happy and enjoyed this event, besides our performance there was also a lion dance performance and performances from Elsafan's friends. Wow... this event was witnessed by Grandma and Grandpa... everyone who attended watched and danced with ISDI friends. The children were happy and all had a good time...

On March 5, 2026, ISDI held an art therapy activity with Mrs. Mira Hoeng at the ISDI Center of Hope. Mrs. Mira Hoeng is a textile designer, pattern artist, and creative entrepreneur from Indonesia who founded the fashion and lifestyle brand MIWA Pattern.

This activity was attended by ISDI children and their accompanying parents. The goal was to explore children's potential and the importance of parent-child relationships in developing their painting skills.

From the responses from parents who participated in this activity, all parents learned that their children's drawings demonstrated extraordinary imagination. We, ISDI and the parents, hope that this activity will continue and that more knowledge will be learned from our unfamiliar experiences.

The Center of Hope ISDI was again invited to participate in the Ramadan bazaar at Makarim & Taira S. (Law Firm) on March 12, 2026. At this Ramadan bazaar, ISDI created a variety of cookies, pickled kiamboy, tote bags, ISDI kimonos in collaboration with SOVLO, and much more.

We are very grateful to the Board of Directors and staff of Makarim & Taira S. for their appreciation of the work of the Center of Hope ISDI students. Everything was sold out, and the children were very happy to participate in the bazaar. They also learned how to attract customers and market their cookies.

Hopefully, we can meet again in 2027, and we hope you enjoy the work of the Center of Hope ISDI students.

Happy 27th Birthday to ISDI on April 21, 2026. We celebrated at Center of Hope ISDI with all the children from the Center and the children participating in angklung activities at ISDI. It has been an extraordinary journey and achievement for ISDI in 27 years of mentoring, training, and supporting these children in their work.

We are very grateful to the parents, ISDI children, donors, and the entire community for their support, both material and non-material.

We pray that in ISDI's 27th year of service, we can continue to provide the best, that ISDI will be widely recognized not only in Indonesia but also internationally, and that ISDI will continue to be an inspiration and a living example for the community regarding the importance of an equal and supportive space for all children with Down Syndrome. Amin.

ISDI held a screening of "Semua Akan Baik-Baik Saja" at XXI Cinema, Artha Gading Mall, on Thursday, May 14, 2026.

This film has a great, touching, and memorable storyline. One thing that made us proud was the film's cast, featuring a disabled friend named Alim. He delivered a truly attractive performance.

We are grateful to Tiger Wong Entertainment for inviting ISDI to attend the screening of "Semua Akan Baik-Baik Saja" We hope that ISDI students will also have the opportunity to act and star in films like Alim. Amin.

The main event featured a group painting activity on cloth bags. The children were thrilled and excited to express their imagination through color. The warmth was further enhanced by the team from PT. Waas Corp Indonesia not only accompanying them but also enthusiastically learning more about the characters of the ISDI Center of Hope children and their extraordinary potential.

The festive event concluded with a special performance by the ISDI Center of Hope students, who performed a modern dance.

We, the ISDI family, express our deepest gratitude for this concern and togetherness. Being a part of PT Waas Corp Indonesia's 11th anniversary journey is an honor for us. Our best wishes: may PT. Waas Corp Indonesia continue to prosper, succeed, and spread benefits to others. Amin.
