At Humanity In Distress (HID), our journey of empowering distressed communities began in 2001 with a clear vision: to create a society where poverty, exploitation, and disparity are relics of the past. Over the years, we have dedicated ourselves to improving the lives of the most vulnerable in Bangladesh, fostering sustainable development through education, healthcare, and economic empowerment.

Our Commitment to Change

HID was established by a passionate group of individuals from Rangpur district who were determined to make a difference. Guided by our mission to facilitate socio-economic development, we have launched numerous initiatives aimed at uplifting marginalized communities. Our work is driven by the belief that every individual deserves the opportunity to lead a fulfilling and dignified life.

Pioneering Projects and Their Impact

1. Empowering Through EducationEducation is the cornerstone of development. At HID, we provide free educational programs, including computer training and vocational courses, to poor and meritorious students. These programs equip individuals with the skills needed to secure better job opportunities, breaking the cycle of poverty and opening doors to a brighter future.
2. Health and Well-being for AllAccess to quality healthcare is essential for a thriving community. Our free Friday Clinics offer medical care to those who cannot afford it, ensuring that everyone has access to necessary health services. In addition, our health awareness campaigns educate communities on critical health issues, promoting healthier lifestyles and better hygiene practices.
3. Economic Empowerment InitiativesEconomic independence is crucial for sustainable development. HID’s microfinance program provides small loans and business training to poor women, empowering them to start and grow their own businesses. This not only increases household incomes but also fosters a sense of empowerment and self-reliance among women, enabling them to contribute meaningfully to their communities.
4. Advancing Women’s RightsWomen’s empowerment is central to our mission. We offer tailored programs that provide education, skills training, and income-generating opportunities for women. By supporting women’s rights and gender equality, we help create a more balanced and just society.
5. Child Protection and DevelopmentChildren are the future, and their well-being is of utmost importance. HID works to protect vulnerable children by providing safe spaces, education, and nutritional support. Our programs ensure that children have the resources and environment they need to grow, learn, and thrive.
6. Promoting Environmental StewardshipEnvironmental sustainability is integral to our mission. Through our tree plantation initiatives and environmental education programs, we raise awareness about the importance of preserving our natural resources. These efforts help create greener, more sustainable communities.

Real-Life Transformations

The impact of HID’s initiatives is evident in the stories of those we have helped. From women who have launched successful businesses through our microfinance program to children who now have access to education and healthcare, the positive changes are profound and far-reaching.
