About Bangladesh

Bangladesh hosts nearly one million Rohingya refugees in Cox's Bazar — one of the largest refugee settlements in the world — alongside its own vulnerable populations affected by seasonal flooding, cyclones, and persistent poverty. The Rohingya, fleeing persecution in Myanmar, live in overcrowded camps with limited access to healthcare, education, and clean water. Monsoon rains regularly trigger landslides and flooding within the camps, destroying shelters and contaminating water supplies. Beyond the refugee crisis, rural Bangladeshi communities face chronic poverty, with many families surviving on less than £1 per day. Seasonal flooding affects millions annually, destroying crops, homes, and livelihoods. The garment industry workforce, predominantly women, faces exploitation and inadequate wages. Our partner organisations operate across Cox's Bazar refugee camps and rural Bangladeshi communities, delivering food packs, building water wells and homes, sponsoring orphans, and distributing Qurans to madrasahs in underserved areas.

Delivery Method: Distribution through established partner organizations in Cox's Bazar refugee camps and rural Bangladeshi communities.

Why This Matters

There are over 140 million orphans worldwide, many in conflict zones where they face exploitation, child labour, and denial of basic rights. Orphan sponsorship provides a lifeline — covering education fees, school supplies, healthcare, nutritious meals, and emotional support through dedicated social workers.

When you sponsor an orphan, you are paired with a specific child. You receive regular updates including photos, school reports, and progress summaries. Your sponsorship ensures they can attend school instead of working, receive medical care when sick, and grow up with dignity.

  • Emotional and psychosocial support

The Prophet (peace be upon him) held up his index and middle fingers together and said: "I and the one who sponsors an orphan will be like these two in Paradise." (Bukhari)

As a Rohingya refugee, I have lost everything. Your charity reminds me that the Ummah has not forgotten us.
