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, 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. Canadian charitable donation tax receipts can be provided for financial donations directed to health care-related activities.
How donations are used
The Bangladesh Health Project receives no government funding. So far, we operate on donations of about $25,000 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 costs in Canada are website management, book-keeping and audit services to meet Canada Revenue Agency requirements. Volunteers do this work; none of the directors is paid.
​
Our partner agencies IUBAT College of Nursing and OIST are private, not-for-profit institutes that charge tuition. Both provide loans, grants and scholarships to bright students who cannot afford tuition fees. Bluebell School charges no tuition.
