Unlike developed countries, Bangladesh Govt can't assist citizen with hardship during this crisis & daily-earners suffering from hunger.
International
With as little as 20 bux a week can supply food pack for a family that would last a week.
“Give Bangladesh" along with five other organizations, namely, “Bandhu Foundation of Bangladesh” , “Light of Hopes Youth”, “Shunte Ki Pao”, “Prochesta Foundation Bangladesh” and “Lal Sobuj Foundation” have joined together to aid these people in need, to beat the odds and fight against the consequences of COVID-19.
Our prime goal is to help 1000 families, approximately being 6000-7000 people. Our main focus right now will be on the slum areas of Begunbari, Tejgaon and Airport. Currently, we are on process of making a muster roll (a list where the name of the families and their phone numbers).
An amount of 1346 taka will be spent on a family consisting of 5 members for 7 days, which will vary according to the member of the families. Such as, if a family has 6 members then the cost will be increased to 1548 taka, nonetheless for a family of 4 members it will be reduced to 1090 taka only.
Now, if you want to help this cause and fight the pandemic of Corona virus during the time of lock down, you can support us financially and help these day laborers, their families and everyone else’s well-being in the moment of crisis.
