Baznas expands zakat programs, digital outreach and disaster aid across Indonesia
Badan Amil Zakat Nasional (Baznas) RI was honored with the Top Brand Award for the zakat and charity category for the fifth consecutive year in 2026, achieving a 43 % score on the Top Brand Index.
In response to severe drought in Pandeglang, Banten, Baznas distributed 48 000 liters of clean water to 250 families, providing immediate relief for drinking, cooking and hygiene needs.
The organization launched the ZChicken program in Langkat, North Sumatra, allocating Rp300 million (Rp10 million per beneficiary) to support mustahik with poultry‑business kits, training and capital.
Baznas also partnered with Media Digital of the Majelis Ulama Indonesia (MUI) to boost zakat literacy, leveraging digital platforms and artificial‑intelligence tools to reach a wider audience.
Senior officials outlined a strategic transformation for Baznas, emphasizing professional governance, digitalisation, cross‑ministerial collaboration and eight leadership priorities aimed at improving zakat collection, transparency and impact.
Additionally, the successful village‑level UPZ model pioneered in Ciamis was examined by Baznas officials from Tegal as a replicable approach for expanding zakat collection at the grassroots level.
