The Bangladesh Health Project is a not-for-profit organization with no government funding. It is sustained through private contributions, such as monetary donations, volunteer effort and education supplies, with very low overhead.
All financial donations are entirely used
toward the project and its beneficiaries.
Your contribution towards population health in Bangladesh is greatly appreciated. Please contact us directly about larger donations or with any questions.

How you can help
We welcome enthusiastic short-term and long-term volunteers to contribute from home or as visiting faculty in Bangladesh. We value contributions of educational materials, which visiting faculty volunteers will take with them. We also appreciate donations to support project activities such as salaries for teachers at Bluebell School or OIST, the purchase of books and teaching equipment and developing teaching space. Scholarship and bursary support for secondary school, nursing, MPH and OIST students is also welcome. We cannot provide Canadian charitable donation tax receipts at this time.
How donations are used
The Bangladesh Health Project receives no government funding. So far, we operate on donations of about $50,000 per year, mostly from a few families.
Your donations to the Bangladesh Health Project are used only to support BHP activities in Bangladesh. Our overhead activities in Canada such as website management and book-keeping are performed or paid for by the Directors. None of the directors is paid for this contribution.
Our partner agency Oasis for Posterity is a government registered NGO. OfP operates the vocational college, OIST, as a private, not-for-profit institute. OIST charges tuition but provides loans, grants and scholarships to bright students who cannot afford tuition fees. OfP's Bluebell School charges no tuition. OfP's health clinic charges low fees for cost-recovery.
