Update Report

By Ahmed Imtiaz Jami | Project Leader

Summary of Activities

Since the launch of the Shelter Home for Coastal Region project, OBHIZATRIK Foundation has been dedicated to providing safe havens for communities vulnerable to natural disasters. Our goal is to raise $87,000 to construct a robust facility that will serve as both a school for underprivileged children and a cyclone shelter, accommodating up to 1,000 individuals during emergencies. This initiative aims to address the urgent educational and safety needs of the coastal region’s community.

Impact and Progress

We’ve made some progress in forming a design and planning team and have begun the initial phase of design, including a site assessment. In the Patuakhali district, which often faces floods and cyclones, we're planning a facility that will serve as a shelter during emergencies. We've also held a few stakeholder meetings, where local residents have expressed their appreciation and provided valuable input into the design plan. However, we still need to raise funds to start the construction of this project..

Recent Developments

In recent months, OBHIZATRIK Foundation has been actively collaborating with local authorities and international organizations to enhance our efforts. We have conducted community meetings and awareness sessions to educate residents about disaster preparedness and the benefits of the new shelter. These initiatives have been well-received, with many community members expressing their support and appreciation for the project.

Rationale for Donation

The need for financial support for coastal communities in Bangladesh is critical. According to recent data, over 40 million people live in the coastal plain, which is highly susceptible to cyclones, flooding, and other natural disasters (World Bank, 2022). By contributing to the Shelter Home for Coastal Region project, donors can directly help these vulnerable communities by providing a safe haven and ensuring the continuity of education for children. The recent Remal cyclone has had a devastating impact on the community, underscoring the urgent need to kickstart our construction efforts. It's crucial that we create a shelter before the next disaster strikes. Your support is crucial in making this project a reality and bringing hope to those in need.

Your generosity can make a significant difference in the lives of coastal families in Bangladesh. Together, we can create a safer and brighter future for these communities.
