The campaign

#TimIndonesia

Indonesia loses roughly 130 trillion rupiah a year to waste it never manages. Burning plastic is the everyday version of that number: it happens in neighbourhoods, and people breathe it.

Our first campaign united Indonesian creators around one ask. Stop the burning, and hold regional officials to better waste policy before they faced an election.

Over 10,000 Indonesians signed up at TimIndonesia.org, and the campaign secured public commitments from prominent politicians, including the Governor of Jakarta.

The creators behind it reach over 100 million people. More useful than the reach: they have trust that large institutions rarely get.

Why creators

Organizations still lean on activists, but no social issue has ever been solved by activists alone. Look at what actually moved things for King and Gandhi and you find the same engine:

Ordinary citizens, mobilized.

People in power respond when ordinary people ask, not only when activists do. Creators For Impact reaches those citizens through the people they already trust.
