Receiving this invaluable coaching support has been pivotal for me.

Hi, I am Kajal; I  received my sponsorship in 2009 when I was a student of class VIII.  I am now a candidate for the Higher National Certificate exams. However, I could not produce good results in some of my pre-exam tests. I felt depressed and did not know what to do. My parents were not in a position to provide me with additional tuition to overcome my weakness on certain subjects. Children’s Hope then put me under Vulnerable Students’ Support Scheme and I now receive specialised coaching until my major exams start. As a student of vulnerable support scheme, I also receive other educational support such as regular counselling. Receive this invaluable coaching support has been pivotal for me to feel confident and to appear for these important college exams.

I had a dream to become a doctor

I’m Aysha Akter Turna. I embarked on Children’s Hope (CH) sponsorship program in 2009 when I was in class VII. From my childhood, I had a dream to become a doctor. But I was born in a very poor family and my parents could not send me to an appropriate school. This was until Children’s Hope came to my life, and I soon found hope and confidence  to fulfil my dream.

With the help of the comprehensive education program, today I am a medical student at Mymensing Medical College. I live at the medical college campus, this became possible because of the non-residence facility of Children’s Hope Education option, which enabled me to live and study outside home. My family is not able to bear the extra cost of my accommodation and food incurred due to living on site.

In addition to my monthly residential cost, I also receive from Children's Hope the full education expenses as a medical student.

When I was a student of class 6, I became sponsored by Children’s Hope. Since primary school, I always dreamt of becoming a doctor but, as I was one of five children in a family with a low income, that dream was never going to happen, until I joined the Children’s Hope scheme. In addition to my educational help the charity supports my family, their medical treatments and also my nutritional needs. Children’s Hope plays a vital role in fulfilling my ambition as a doctor. “

“My name is Rehang Parvin. I became a sponsored child with Children’s Hope when I was just 12 years old as my stepmother could not afford my education fees, even though I wished to study more. The comprehensive support I received from Children’s Hope has allowed me to achieve academic success in both secondary and further education. Today I am completing a Masters in English Literature at a private University in Bangladesh. When I graduate I would like to train to be an English teacher because this is a subject most students with limited resources find difficult to learn. I believe any student who has the passion to learn and who receives the right support can master anything.”

“I am Amena Khatun. I am 21 and now in my second year studying for a degree in chemistry. Coming from a very poor family in the Bauniabandh slum in the Mirpur area of Dhaka city, with a younger brother and a sister, my parents could not afford to send us all to school. This opportunity was made possible by the Children’s Hope sponsorship scheme who offered financial assistance when I was 14-years-old at Kalshi school. My fate changed when Children’s Hope stepped in, now I can study as long as I want and become a doctor because Children’s Hope will bear all my educational expenses all the way. Thanks to the charity, I now have the privilege of studying in a school without worrying about paying fees.”
