Video Description: IMPACT Foundation Bangladesh (IFB) is a Charitable Trust and a non-governmental organization working in the country as a part of global IMPACT movement. The mandate of this organization, like other national IMPACT Foundations, is to achieve sustainable and affordable change in the immemorial pattern of disability through efforts to prevent avoidable disablement. Besides the common mandate, the organization is always searching to find-out the reasons behind disability and trying to intervene in new areas of development to prevent avoidable disablement.
Impact Masudul Haque Health Centre, the first project of Impact Foundation Bangladesh, runs a 20 bed fully equipped hospital and the Sir John Wilson prosthetic center for the disabled in the remote Southwestern Chuadanga district. A large number of people become physically handicapped every year due to road accident, and congenital anomalies like Club foot and hare lip. Impact’s Chuadanga Center is the only place for their treatment in the entire south western region of the country. Inspired by the success and confidence gained in Chuadanga, Impact started a similar center in adjacent Meherpur district in 2004 to reach to many more thousands waiting for Impact’s help. Launched 10 years ago, JIBON TARI, the 1st floating hospital for civilian population is the icon project of Impact in Bangladesh. It ensures access of the rural un-served and marginalized men, women and children to modern health care facilities to prevent and cure disability. Passionate and dedicated workers of Impact, their friends and well-wishers, and professionals from within and outside Bangladesh have joined hands to make a difference in the lives of the less fortunate. Do you want to join them too?
