JAKARTA - Legendary musician Fariz RM showed his humanistic side in Ramadan by taking care of orphans. The funds disbursed were the result of an auction of his valuable belongings that were sold in a special event recently.
Fariz RM's lawyer, Deolipa Yumara, explained that today's agenda was a form of transparency from the auction results of the musician's memorabilia.
"Mr. Fariz RM will provide compensation to orphans to be divided among orphans in the form of funds," said Deolipa in Tebet, South Jakarta, Thursday, March 12.
According to Deolipa, the funds were collected thanks to the enthusiasm of collectors in previous auctions.
"The money generated from yesterday's event, where there was an auction of Fariz RM's memorabilia jacket. And the money is to be collected, to be handed over to the orphanage by Mr. Fariz," he explained.
The distribution of this assistance was carried out directly to several orphanages in Jakarta. Deolipa said there were two main locations visited, namely the 1999 Tebet Orphanage and the Mizan Kalibata Orphanage.
"There are two orphanages, the first one here, the orphanage in Tebet, the second one in Kalibata," added Deolipa.
Fariz RM himself revealed that the idea of this auction came from his personal desire to share happiness.
"I want to auction off some historical memorabilia from my career journey as a national professional musician, and the proceeds will be set aside for orphans in order to welcome the holy month of Ramadan," said the singer of Sakura.
For Fariz, the moment of Ramadan is the right time to increase charitable deeds. He hopes that this assistance will be beneficial for children in orphanages.
"God willing, we can share happiness to welcome Eid al-Fitr," he said with gratitude.
Fariz admitted that he was grateful for the smooth running of the event, especially because his activities are now managed professionally.
"I am under the auspices of Deolipa Production and PT Diva Kreasi Indobarang which now manages my total activities, I feel grateful that this opportunity was given by Allah SWT," said Fariz.
Furthermore, Fariz wants this sharing spirit not to stop only during the fasting month. He hopes to continue to be consistent in doing similar things.
"The spirit of Ramadan like this is not only until this Ramadan, at least we can bring it, we can practice it in our lives throughout our lives," he hoped.
Regarding the collected nominal, Fariz was reluctant to mention the exact number but ensured that the amount was quite significant.
"Alhamdulillah, the most important thing is to share happiness for the orphanage, God willing, we can share happiness for all of us," he concluded.
