About ZAMMI

ZAMMI (Rumah Didik Yatim & Dhuafa) is a local educational initiative under Yayasan Babuddarajah Al Amri in North Sumatra, Indonesia. ZAMMI is committed not only to providing formal education but also to serving as a movement that advocates for equitable learning opportunities for marginalized children, especially orphans (yatim) and children from low-income backgrounds (dhuafa). ZAMMI SEKOLAH YATIM DAN DHUAFA+1

As an institution, ZAMMI operates mainstream educational units including Raudhatul Athfal (early childhood education), Madrasah Ibtidaiyah (elementary level), and Pesantren (Islamic boarding education). At the same time, ZAMMI focuses on bridging gaps in access and quality that disproportionately affect children from marginalized families. ZAMMI SEKOLAH YATIM DAN DHUAFA
