Bangladesh's rivers Padma, Jamuna, Meghna, and Brahmaputra wash away about 8,700 hectares of land, displacing nearly 200,000 people (PressXpress). Some studies warn up to 1 million lose homes annually (The Financial Express). Since 1967, the Padma alone has claimed 66,000 hectares (Wikipedia). UNICEF estimates that over 12 million children remain at risk. Families in vulnerable districts now live on boats with little food and water. Your support can deliver urgent relief and restore dignity.
River erosion in Bangladesh displaces 200,000 people each year, swallowing 8,700 hectares of land annually. From 1973-2017, the Padma, Jamuna & Meghna rivers devoured 160,000 hectares-5 Dhaka's size. Families like Amena Begum's have lost homes 5 times. Now, many survive on overcrowded boats, stripped of dignity, food, water & shelter. Their future is uncertain, but with your support, hope can return.
With your help, we can bring urgent relief to families who lost everything to river erosion. Together we will provide food, clean water, and hygiene kits so no family goes hungry or sick, shelter materials to protect those stranded on boats, medical care for children and the elderly, and school kits so little ones don't lose their future. Community-driven, this response ensures the most vulnerable are reached with dignity and hope.
Emergency aid is just the beginning. With continued support, families can rebuild lives with dignity. We will restore livelihoods through training in farming and small businesses, create safer settlements, and ensure children stay in school. Together, we can break the cycle of displacement, restore hope, and empower families to regain stability and independence.
