Welcome to BESCO!
"BESCO-Hilfe für Bangladesch e.V." (BESCO – Help for Bangladesh, a registered association) is a non-profit charitable voluntary relief organization for education and socio-cultural development in Bangladesh. BESCO is registered (no. VR 200051) in the district court Fürth, Germany. It is also recognized by the Income Tax Office Erlangen, Germany as a non-profit charitable relief organization.
Bangladesh is one of the poorest countries of the world. Illiterates are about half of the population, with the women it is even 73%. Altogether, there is a lack of teachers, schools and school material. Secondary schools are rare in rural regions. Many children cannot even finish primary school and have to start working to support their parents financially. A very little financial help (e.g. 3 EURO per month) can support the school education of a pupil. A basic medical care practically doesn't exist in rural areas. This is problematic particularly for women since many are suppressed and maltreated.
These facts lead us to the foundation of the association to help the people of Bangladesh, particularly women and children.
Our ongoing projects: · Construction and operation of a primary school · Training course “Sewing” for disadvantaged women · Counseling against child marriage · Support for the equal rights of women (gender equality) · First aid and counseling for the medical care of the disadvantaged women · Financial support to good pupils from poorest families and · Financial support to the existing primary-/ secondary schools. · Building of a basic health care center.
Our target projects: · Building and operation of a school center · Building and operation of a women center and
Since the BESCO members work in an honorary capacity the donations do not get lost in unnecessary administration and bureaucracy. Hence the complete help can flow directly in the realization of the projects.
The projects can only be realized if enough money is available. Therefore BESCO is dependent on your support. By your sponsorship, donation and/or membership you can help the people in Bangladesh.
We rely on your support.
