How we began

Alhaj Shamsul Alam Foundation

Alhaj Shamsul Alam Foundation began in 2023 at Baliapara, in Sonargaon upazila of Narayanganj. The late Alhaj Shamsul Alam spent his life quietly helping people in his own area, without publicity. His family formed this foundation to give that habit an institutional shape.

How we work

The method is simple. We talk to local teachers, imams and union council members to understand which households genuinely need help, then deliver support against that list. The cost of every programme is published at the end of the year, and anyone may ask questions at the annual general meeting.

Things we do not compromise on

  • We do not photograph recipients for publicity.
  • The foundation's name is never used for a political party or candidate.
  • Lists are not drawn on religion, party or identity — need is the only criterion.
  • Administrative costs are kept as low as possible so most of a donation reaches the work.

Our mission

To put education and healthcare within reach of low-income families in Sonargaon and nearby areas, so that no child leaves school for want of money and no patient is turned away from treatment.

Our vision

A community where the address you are born into does not decide your future.

Our values

Transparency, accountability, dignity and consistency — four words that describe how we work.
