Who we are.
We are a few concerned Bangladeshis. Who are collecting donations for injured students and the general public in Bangladesh, transferring funds to trusted individuals on the ground, and providing regular updates to donors.
Fundraising and Donation Collection
- Establish a Clear Donation Platform: Create a dedicated platform for collecting donations.
- Transparent Communication: Clearly outline the purpose of the funds, how the money will be used, and the process for distributing the funds.
- Payment Options: Currently, only e-transfer is available in Canada. To avoid access fees. For maximum donation.
Distribution and Transparency
- Conduct regular assessments to identify the most urgent needs among the injured students and the general public.
- Prioritize direct distribution of funds to individuals to minimise overhead costs and ensure maximum impact.
- Provide regular updates to donors about the number of beneficiaries, the amount of aid distributed, and the specific needs addressed.
- Maintain detailed records of all donations, transfers, and distributions for accountability and transparency purposes.
- Share photos and stories of the beneficiaries to create a personal connection with donors and highlight the impact of their contributions.
Legal and Ethical Considerations
- Ensure compliance with all relevant Canadian and Bangladeshi laws and regulations regarding fundraising and money transfers.
- Maintain the highest ethical standards in all aspects of the donation and distribution process.
- Protect the privacy of donors and beneficiaries by handling personal information securely.
Fund Transfer
- Secure Transfer Method: Utilize secure and reliable money transfer services to send funds to designated individuals in Bangladesh. Consider options like Western Union, MoneyGram, or bank transfers.
- Designated Recipients: Establish a clear list of trusted individuals in Bangladesh who will be responsible for distributing the funds. Ensure they have the necessary identification and banking information.
- Regular Communication: Maintain regular communication with the recipients to monitor fund usage and address any concerns.
Donor Updates
- Establish a communication channel (e.g., website, and social media updates) to provide regular updates on the progress of the campaign.
- Share stories of individuals who have benefited from the donations, including photos and testimonials.
- Provide regular financial reports detailing the amount of funds collected, distributed, and remaining.
