Fishermen of the Sundarbans region live from hand to mouth; that is they lead their life by catching and selling fish every day. Generally the children of fishermen don’t get the opportunity of higher education and they join their parents’ profession that is fishing. Many students get dropped out due to financial crisis and they get involved in catching fish from the childhood to support their family. That’s why the number of fishermen professionals in the Sundarbans reason is increasing; as a result the natural resources of Sundarbans are under pressure.
Bangladesh Environment and Development Society (BEDS) is trying to raise fund from GlobalGiving to improve the livelihood of 50 dropped out children. Target grant of the proposed project is 25,700 $ and so far, 843 $ is raised from 14 donations.
We have already distributed 10 sheep among ten villagers, who are Sundarbans natural resources harvester. On 20 June 2020, ten sheep have been distributed among the 10 dropout students of Sundarbans coastal region. Through this, livelihood opportunity for 10 villagers has been created, now they are extremely happy.
We are highly grateful to the donor for being so kind to us. We would like to thank all our donors for their continuous support. We do hope that you will be continuously with us for our community and assist them to lead a sound life.
