Flood Relief Appeal
As the people of Bangladesh battle with Covid-19, another disaster has struck. One third of the country has flooded after heavy monsoon rains started in late June. This has been the worst floods seen in decades with 5.5 million people have been affected by the disaster.
The scenes are devastating. These people have lost everything, their homes, cattle, crops and livelihood.

We run multiple projects for the benefit of the poor such as medical camps and eye clinics, distribution of food for Iftar in Ramadan, winter blanket distributions and support for widows and single mothers.
Currently 98 children study at the Al-Zahoor Academy. Building projects are ongoing to expand the school so we can offer more places as there are children on our waiting lists.
Unused farm lands have been put to use to grow crops and farm fish. The land not only provides the food to feed the children at the school, but it also provides jobs for the local people.
