We provide outreach education and support to working children in Bangladesh

Story

Bangladesh has been placed under strict lockdown due to rapidly rising cases of COVID-19. People living in extreme poverty who rely on earning money each day to buy food are left without an income and they can’t feed their families. UKBET urgently needs to raise £4,000 to provide food packages and emergency supplies for the 400 vulnerable families on our programmes. Our staff are in phone contact every day to respond to community needs, providing a vital safety net to prevent more children being sent to work as a result of parents falling even deeper into poverty.
