PEKALONGAN, CENTRAL JAVA — The Dompet Dhuafa Health Service Action or several residents loved Aksi Layanan Sehat (ALS) in Pekalongan after the Tarawih prayer time on Tuesday (19/4/2023) night.

“We are open 24-hour service. Many residents do health checks because they claim to be far away to come to the clinic. So are the travellers who rest, they are tired and want to know their health condition. Many travellers use motorbikes across the Pantura Line,” said Fadil.
The services presented by Dompet Dhuafa are the spirit of Ramadan from the Heart (Ramadan dari Hati) that seeks to reach and be close to the community. The service was rolled out thanks to the community’s zakat, and again reminded to give zakat.
