I am taking part in the London to Paris cycle ride being hosted by Muslim Charity on 1st and 2nd July 2017. I will be cycling a total distance of 180 miles over two days to get to Paris. This will be my biggest challenge, but the thought of helping these poor children gives me the courage to do it.
I've chosen to support this cause in hope that the children abandoned in the streets of Bangladesh can be rescued from their unfortunate circumstances.
These children have been in the most unimaginable situations. We can't truly understand what they have been through, but only try and help to improve their lives. Therefore I would really appreciate a donation
towards the betterment of these vulnerable children.
In Dhaka, you can see them on each corner of a street, unwanted, unloved, victims of sexual and all kinds of exploitation are these innocent souls. 680,000 children live on the streets of Dhaka, and they are increasing. 80% of Dhaka’s street children are boys and among 50% are under the age of 10. They earn between 30-40 Bangladesh Taka ($0.51 USD and £0.33 GBP) per day.
Your support will help to create a safe haven for street children in Bangladesh from the drug abuse, malnutrition and sexual exploitation that they face on a daily basis.
