Over the years the D.O.G.S. are proud to have supported local charities. This was usually done as part of a competition with another society where we would donate all game fees to charity.
A new initiative was begun at our Rainbow Hills 2020 tournament; during tournaments we take donations in our charity barrel after each round and at the end of the tournament it is donated to a charity that has a connection to the D.O.G.S.
We are proud to report that in 2020 the D.O.G.S. were able to donate 25,057,500 IDR to various charities.
In all the D.O.G.S. have donated over 85,000,000 to charity.

Donation from Rainbow Hills 2020 Tournament to:
Tempat Belajar a.k.a Place to Learn
Organized by D.O.G.S. member Riahana "Hana" Ariestya.
Seeing many Anak Jalanan (street kids) begging and selling whatever they could to get by, Hanna and 6 of her co-workers (Alvin, Elsi, Monic, Maya, Icin and Lola) decided they wanted to do something and initially set out to try and randomly help several Anak Jalanan.
Hana and her friends decided they wanted to do something about education as kids should have the chance to be able to read and write in their own language. They believe addressing education is one of the most effective ways to empower kids to build their future or simply to help their community.
To this end ‘Tempat Belajar’ was created with the goal to help get an education for Anak Jalanan. The children are provided books, stationary and a freelance teacher to help them study.
In the beginning all funds came from their own pockets. With more and more Anak Jalanan taking part they have begun looking for donors to help.
