HISTORY OF YAYASAN KARINAKAS
It has been more than six years after KARINAKAS was found on June 12, 2006. It was founded after the tremendous earthquake shocked Yogyakarta and Central Java. Started from voluntary action, KARINAKAS is not a solid organization in all its aspects. KARINAKAS responses any disaster based on what it has at the moment disaster happen. KARINAKAS help and serve the victims with all its abilities and capacities.
KARINAKAS shapes and establishes its identity in such organizational conditions. It likes a baby who is learning to walk, step by step; he strengthens his feet and learns from any experiences he got. During this learning period, KARINAKAS has improved its capacities which are developed through any failures, success, challenges, and chances.
The existence of this organization cannot be taken away from Archdiocese of Semarang. There are several organizations which also express the social sensitivity of churches in Archdiocese of Semarang. LPUBTN, YSS, and PSE Commission are KARINAKAS’s partners in actualizing churches’ social sense.KARINAKAS and other organizations build a network to continually serve society in the name of humanity.
Considering several experiences possessed, it should be prideful that KARINAKAS is still loyal to its vision and mission. However, it is undeniable that there are several things to be considered for the sake of organizational improvement. The year of 2009 is a right time to review what KARINAKAS has done and is being done, to focus its movement, to look at its future, and to move achieving idealism.
KARINAKAS are member of the big family Caritas Internationalis that centered in Rome. In coordidnation with Karina KWI, KARINAKAS alongside with hundreds of Caritas member from all over the world together creating world forming realization fairly for all people in the world, especially those who small, weak, poor, marginalized, dan disabled.

In 2017, KARINAKAS are on its 11th. Institutionally, the movement and work of Karinakas for approximately 11 years under the archdiocese of Semarang based on the Decree of the Bishop on June 12, 2006.

On 2009, KARINAKAS decided to deliver three major program, namely:
-
Community Based Rehabilitation.

This program aims to support the development of inclusive communities that respect disability and accept the difables as part of communities. This program is implemented in three district.
2. Community Management Disaster Risk Reduction.
Indonesia has a high potential for natural disasters. The Ring of Fire passes through the Indonesian archipelago. Continental plates and ocean plates are under this country’s land mass. Earthquakes, volcanoes, windstorms and landslides are some of the possible disasters. Our understanding of mainstream disaster management allowed us to deliver the CMDRR program. This program assists parishes and communities to conduct disaster risk reduction, mitigation, and preparedness planning. Emergency Response Management is also important for communities that live in the hazard areas.
3. Development.
This program focuses on increasing household revenue and education for the poor. It also delivers scholarships for children. Assisted areas are located in 10 parishes in 4 district.
