Ronald said at a press conference that he felt compelled to organize the event upon hearing about the experiences in Palu of Maudy Lidya, a brand strategist at Gagas Inspirasi Indonesia.
Maudy visited the area on Oct. 8 and discovered that the victims still needed help.
When asked why she chose Palu, Maudy explained that the area’s condition, particularly in Petobo, Balaroa and Maboro, was terrible, saying that it looked like doomsday there.
Maudy will receive the funds and be responsible for distributing the donations to the victims. (mut)
