Sponsor a Child in Bangladesh: A Gift of Love, A Promise of Tomorrow

When you Sponsor a Child in Bangladesh, you’re offering more than education—you’re giving hope, dignity, and a future. Every child holds the potential to grow into a confident, capable individual—but poverty often stands in the way. In Bangladesh, thousands of children are unable to access learning opportunities due to their family’s financial and social limitations.

At FAIR (Friends Association for Integrated Revolution), we believe that to truly empower communities, we must begin with children. Since 2006, our Sponsor a Child initiative has supported over 5,500 underprivileged children, providing education, safety, and emotional care in marginalized communities across the country.

Your support helps meet each child’s real and evolving needs—whether it’s school supplies, nutritional support, healthcare, emotional counseling, or a safe learning environment. Every sponsorship is child-centered and impact-driven.

To Sponsor a Child is not charity—it is a commitment to nurture potential and break cycles of poverty through education and care.

How are sponsor contributions used to support a child’s needs?

At FAIR, we are committed to using your donation effectively to create a lasting impact in the lives of children in need. Here’s how the funds are allocated:

  • Child Support: A significant portion of your donation goes directly towards the child’s education and daily food needs. This includes covering school tuition, examination fees, necessary school supplies like books, notebooks, pens, and uniforms, as well as ensuring the child receives nutritious meals every day. Your support directly impacts the child’s ability to learn and grow in a stable environment.
  • Program Management: A portion of the funds is used to cover the salary and travel allowances of the animator, who serves as the child’s mentor and guardian. The animator ensures the child’s education is on track, monitors their progress, and provides essential support throughout their journey.

Operational and Publicity Expenses: Some funds are allocated for administrative costs, which help manage the program efficiently. Additionally, a portion is used for publicity to raise awareness and attract more donors, enabling us to continue providing support to underprivileged children

How does the Sponsor a Child program work?

FAIR works closely with local educational institutions to identify needy children including orphans, disabled and poor children. First, the name of the child comes to us from the educational institution. A FAIR staff member or animator visits the student’s home and interacts with the parent or guardian to collect the student’s academic and family information. Through this process, the needs of the child are identified including selecting the right student. Every child has different cost needs. Some need educational expenses and some need clothes, food, and more besides educational expenses.

We connect each selected child with one or more sponsors or supporters for a one-year term. After that period, sponsors have the option to continue supporting the same child or choose to help another.

No direct cash is given to the child or their family; all support is provided through structured services and resources. An animator is appointed for the sponsored child who is responsible for spending the funds on behalf of the child. Some of the sectors that are spent on children include tuition fees, school supplies, pens, pencils, geometry boxes, uniforms, and food. FAIR authority approves the annual cost of the child as per the cost incurred by the animator for the child and all bill vouchers are preserved after approval.

Any citizen of Bangladesh has the right to access the program’s expenditure bills, vouchers, budget details, and child progress reports to ensure transparency and accountability.
