Bangladesh is currently experiencing one of South Central Asia’s worst humanitarian crises, and the fastest growing refugee crisis in the world. Children and their families in Bangladesh desperately need our help. As a leading Bangladesh charity, we are doing everything we can to help as many children as possible and you can support the work we are doing by donating to Bangladesh. Below is more about why donations to Bangladesh are so desperately needed and the work we do as a Bangladesh charity.
Save The Children’s vision is a world in which every child lives, learns and is safe from harm. For over 100 years we have been defending children’s rights to survive and thrive - working hard to create a world where every child has a safe and happy childhood. We go to the toughest places to save children from earthquakes, cyclones, conflict and disease. Where children are being exploited, neglected or abused, we protect them from harm. Here is why our Bangladesh charity needs your help and how you can donate to Bangladesh today.
Why Donate To Bangladesh
With the Rohingya people being forced to flee Myanmar due to the escalation in conflict there, hundreds of thousands of refugees have fled to neighbouring Bangladesh to the Cox’s Bazaar refugee camp. The conditions in the extremely overcrowded camp are very poor with little opportunity for families to make a living and limited access to services, including healthcare and quality education. Many children have been separated from their families and are at a high risk of being exploited and abused.
Many children in Bangladesh are also forced into child marriages and are at a high risk of child labour & trafficking. In addition to this, the impacts of climate change and flooding are making it even more difficult.
