Assalamualaykum!
I'm Radeya, and I am fundraising for under privileged Mothers in Bangladesh. I will, iA, be travelling to Bangladesh to volunteer and support at health camps in Sylhet during JourneyMaa2026, to provide vital education and healthcare. Please do find it in your heart to support me on this journey, إنْ شَاءَ ٱللَّٰهُ.
Currently, 95% of maternal deaths occur in developing countries.
90% of these deaths are preventable.
Maa (Maternal Aid Association) is a life-changing charity, tackling the shocking reality of maternal mortalities in Bangladesh and other developing countries. Every year, the JourneyMaa project allows volunteers to actively make a difference to this cause by providing access to basic health services. Mothers in under-privileged communities will benefit from free health checks, treatments and medications, all of which can significantly reduce and prevent complications which they may experience. As well as this, educational workshops are delivered on important topics like newborn care and menstrual hygiene for teenage girls. The crucial work carried out by Maa is inspiring and I would love to be able to make a difference, starting in a place close to my heart, my motherland.
According to the World Health Organisation, women in Bangladesh are 21 times more likely to die from maternal causes compared to the UK.
May Allah accept our efforts, your donations and duas, and may they be a means of entry into Jannah for you and your loved ones. امين
