Story

Muslim Charity has been working with street children in Bangladesh for almost 5 years. Along with local ground partners, we have established a mechanism to rescue street children. We have several sites in Dhaka that act as informal schools to engage, track, and encourage children to come off the streets. These are manned by social mobilisers and experienced staff who will rescue children into our transitional shelter.The transitional shelter again based in Dhaka is where children will start their healing process.

It is a safe place where we will start to extract the journey and the story of the child as well as develop leads to find their families.The children are kept for a maximum of 6 weeks and if within this time their families are found they are reunited with the support of government agencies. For the children that have no family, they are referred onto partner or government orphanages.

I've been working on the 'Street Children Campaign' along with Muslim Charity for a few years now and have seen first hand the effects the donations have on the lives of these kids.

Please help me reach this target in order to build a home for these kids who have nobody to take care of them. They literally live on the streets, markets and other unimaginable places unsupervised.

Your donation will help build this house to shelter upto 10 children along with two khalas (carers). By creating this shelter we can provide a space for the children who literally have nobody to live safely or to guide them in life.

Please visit www.muslimcharity.org.uk for more information. Thank you for your donation. May Allah accept our efforts, purify our intentions and enable us to achieve our target in order to support these vulnerable children, ameen.
