This campaign has now closed
I am pleased to say that following the success of last year's Big Give campaign the land we needed in Tongi was purchased. The next stage of this project is to build the foundations and the first two storeys. Are you able to help us help these poor children of Dhaka again?

Situation
The children we work with are street children: they have no shelter, no voice, no rights and often nobody in the world to care for them. Sadly, many of these children will die young. They are not properly taken care of, malnourished and prone to disease. Our overnight shelter will enable us to offer toilets, showers, a games room, and dining space for the children who visit us during the day, and separate overnight accommodation for boys and girls.
Solution
Some of the children are not able to cope with any rules and have stolen items and run! However, having a residential unit will mean that the children who do stay have an address and can therefore enrol in school; and they will learn how to behave in a family unit and with other people
