PT Jamafac Builds New School Facility for SDN 2 Cipeundeuy as CSR Initiative
PT Jamafac (Java Match Factory) has demonstrated its commitment to education and community development through a significant Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative: the construction of a new school building for SDN 2 Cipeundeuy in Padalarang, West Bandung Regency .
Project Overview and Location
The newly constructed school building is located at Kampung Cipeundeuy RT 03 RW 02, Cipeundeuy Village, Padalarang District, West Bandung Regency . The project was officially inaugurated on Tuesday, February 10, 2026, marking a milestone in public-private collaboration for educational infrastructure development in the region .
The school stands on approximately 1,300 square meters of land, making it one of the most representative and well-equipped elementary schools in the Padalarang area .
Comprehensive Facilities
The CSR initiative by PT Jamafac has provided SDN 2 Cipeundeuy with modern educational facilities designed to support a conducive learning environment. The new building includes :6 new class rooms, a room for head of the school, Administration office, Library, Storage room, Prayer room (Mushala) and a School garden/park
These comprehensive facilities represent a significant upgrade from the previous condition of the school and are expected to enhance the quality of education delivery.
Collaborative Development Model
The project was realized through a collaborative framework between the local government and the private sector, utilizing a "ruislag" (land swap/exchange) scheme. This innovative approach involved exchanging the old school land for a new, more spacious location, enabling the construction of significantly improved facilities .
Bupati (Regent) of West Bandung, Jeje Ritchie Ismail, who officiated the inauguration, expressed his deep appreciation for PT Jamafac's commitment, stating: "On behalf of the West Bandung Regency Government, we convey our appreciation and gratitude for the commitment that has been fulfilled. This is proof that regional development grows from collaboration, especially for the benefit of education" .
Company's Vision and Commitment
Ida Irawati, Director of PT Jamafac, expressed her happiness and emotion at being able to directly attend the inauguration ceremony with the Regent. According to her, the new building is not merely a physical structure but a symbol of hope and new spirit for students and teachers in improving the quality of the teaching and learning process .
She emphasized the company's alignment with government programs, stating: "With adequate educational facilities, our children have a better opportunity to grow and develop into a generation that is intelligent, has integrity, and is competitive. This is also in line with government programs in increasing the HDI (Human Development Index) and IDI (Village Development Index)" .
Through this initiative, PT Jamafac aims to support government efforts in educating the nation by providing proper and adequate educational infrastructure .
Community Engagement and Maintenance
PT Jamafac has called upon all elements of the community, including residents of Kampung Cipeundeuy (particularly RW 02), teachers, the school committee, village government, and the surrounding community, to jointly maintain and care for the school building so that it remains comfortable for long-term use .
Furthermore, PT Jamafac encourages synergy among all community elements, parents, and business actors in the surrounding area to support educational advancement, including through support for the central government's Free Nutritious Meals (MBG) program .
Positive Reception and Future Impact
The initiative has received widespread appreciation from various stakeholders. Nur Djulaeha, Chair of Commission IV of the West Bandung DPRD (Regional House of Representatives), praised PT Jamafac's contribution, describing it as a potential pilot project for effective collaboration between government and the private sector .
She noted that such partnerships through CSR programs are highly beneficial in reducing the burden on regional development financing that typically relies on the APBD (Regional Budget). "In West Bandung, this is the first time a business entity has shown such concern for the world of education. This can serve as a pilot project for good collaboration between government and the private sector," she stated
Nur Djulaeha also expressed optimism that if more companies participate in developing educational facilities, the number of schools with damaged buildings can be reduced, and the comfort of the teaching and learning process will increase .
PT Jamafac's CSR initiative to build the new SDN 2 Cipeundeuy facility represents a tangible commitment to educational development and community welfare. By providing modern infrastructure through a collaborative model, the company has not only enhanced the learning environment for students but also set a positive example for other corporations to contribute to public education. The project reflects PT Jamafac's broader vision of supporting sustainable community development while maintaining its role as a responsible corporate citizen .
