AID FOR WASTEPICKERS

The Unforgotten actively manages projects to aid wastepickers in developing
countries.

These are long-term projects, and to this date, we are still one of the only
charities in the world focused on these vulnerable women and children.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


WATER, SANITATION AND HYGIENE (WASH) PROJECTS IN BANGLADESH





IN JANUARY 2019, WE INITIATED FIFTEEN NEW WASH (WATER, SANITATION AND HYGIENE)
PROJECTS IN BANGLADESH FOR THE ROHINGYA REFUGEES. WE HAVE BEEN WORKING AT THE UN
REFUGEE CAMP IN COX'S BAZAR WHERE OVER A MILLION REFUGEES HAVE SOUGHT REFUGE.
BECAUSE OF THE URGENCY OF THE CRISES, WE HAVE HAD TO MOVE QUICKLY. WE ARE
PLEASED TO REPORT THAT WE ARE ALREADY NEARING COMPLETION OF THESE PROJECTS. TWO
OF OUR BOARD MEMBERS (AAISHA AND VEDRANA) WILL BE TRAVELING IN THE SECOND WEEK
OF SEPTEMBER TO ENSURE THAT ALL WORKS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED. AMIT HAD TRAVELED IN
MARCH AT THE INITIATION OF THESE WASH PROJECTS. MANY THANKS TO OUR TEAMS AND
PARTNERS FOR COMPLETING SO MANY PROJECTS IN SUCH A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME!


EMERGENCY APPEAL FOR ROHINGYA FIRE VICTIMS - MARCH 22, 2021

We urgently need your support to deliver emergency clothes, tents and
reconstruct shelters to help Rohingya refugees who lost all their belongings and
homes to a fire on March 22.

Please consider making a donation by using either the GoFundMe Campaign or our
Donation Page.

Thanks much for your consideration.


ROHINGYA REFUGEES



ROHINGYA REFUGEES HAVE BEEN FLEEING VIOLENCE IN MYANMAR AT A STAGGERING RATE –
AND THE NUMBERS KEEP GROWING.

THEY WALK FOR DAYS THROUGH JUNGLES AND MOUNTAINS, OR BRAVE DANGEROUS SEA VOYAGES
ACROSS THE BAY OF BENGAL. THEY ARRIVE EXHAUSTED, HUNGRY AND SICK – IN NEED OF
INTERNATIONAL PROTECTION AND HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE.

ACCORDING TO UNHCR, OVER 742,000 REFUGEES HAVE FLED TO BANGLADESH SINCE 25
AUGUST 2017.

VIOLENCE IN MYANMAR’S NORTHERN RAKHINE STATE HAS BEEN BREWING FOR YEARS, AND THE
MOST RECENT OUTBREAK HAS RESULTED IN AN INFLUX OF ROHINGYA REFUGEES TO COX’S
BAZAR ACROSS THE BORDER IN BANGLADESH.

THE UNFORGOTTEN FUND, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE COUNCIL OF ORGANIZATIONS, IS
LAUNCHING A PROJECT TO PROVIDE WASH (WATER, SANITATION AND HYGIENE) SERVICES TO
ROHINGYA REFUGEES.

THE UNFORGOTTEN FUND (UNFF)

UNFF specializes in WASH (Water, Sanitation and Hygiene) projects that provide
humanitarian relief in UN Field Operations. UNFF delivers life-saving emergency
humanitarian relief in UN Refugee camps and empowers victims through longer term
projects.


NO OVERHEAD

The Unforgotten is committed to executing humanitarian relief projects at little
to no overhead costs. Our charity is managed in the US by a very active
volunteer Board of Directors. Our paid staff are forward-deployed to the field,
or working completely on projects. We consistently receive donor support in
campaigns like the CFC (Combined Federal Campaign) where donors seek out
charities with the lowest overhead costs. Our charity overhead percentage of 0%
is documented in our annual Form 990 filings, and we annually have our books
externally audited by a CPA (who performs the service to us pro bono). We have
received the 2017 “Gold Seal of Transparency” from Guidestar, and are certified
as one of the “Best in America” from “America’s Best Charities”.

 


INTERNATIONAL PROGRAMS




We have ongoing, completed and planned projects in Bangladesh, Zambia, India,
Sierra Leone, Kenya, Nepal, Yemen and Ethiopia.



YOU CAN HELP!

Provide desperately needed relief in the world's most urgent humanitarian
emergencies! 100% of your donation goes directly towards program services in
United Nations (UN) Field Operations.

RECENT NEWS

Aid for Child Wastepickers in Nepal

Thanks to your generous support, we are launching a new program in Kathmandu,
Nepal for child wastepickers!

With this new project, The Unforgotten Fund (UNFF) will partner with the
Partnership for Sustainable Development (PSD) in Nepal to organize a series of
programs aimed to address the needs of wastepickers in Kathmandu.



The aim of this partnership and the resulting program is to provide
wastepickers, particularly children and their mothers, with sustainable skills
that can help them achieve better standards of living through formal education,
vocational, and practical work skills training.

This effort will be led by Shalini Puri and Shailaja (Sally) Brady. Feel free to
reach out to them directly if you are interested in volunteering at
shalini.puri@unforgotten.org and/or sally.brady@unforgotten.org

OUR NEWSLETTER: Notes from the Unforgotten

Please take a look at the July 2021 edition of our newsletter.





PROJECTS

UNFF implements projects in the field to provide life-saving humanitarian aid.
Our emergency projects provide services in: 1 - Water supply, sanitation and
hygiene (WASH), 2 - Food security, 3 - Shelter, and 4 - Health. Our longer term
projects in UN Refugee camps include education, income generation and women’s
empowerment.



EMERGENCY RELIEF PROJECTS


WASH – WATER, SANITATION AND HYGIENE

We install emergency drinking water supplies to provide refugees with access to
safe drinking water. We drill boreholes, and install pumps to draw clean water
from the ground. Safe drinking prevents water borne illnesses such as cholera
and saves lives!

Read more


HEALTH

UNFF is partnering with Global One and RET International to run a health clinic
in Cox’s Bazaar for Rohingya Refugees. Only one in four babies is born in a
health clinic in the camp.

Read more


HUNGER RELIEF

The children and their mothers who look through trash for food to eat are highly
malnourished. We provide meals and meal supplements to the children whom we
support.

Read more


SHELTER

When refugees first arrive in camps, there is little time to plan either the
location or construction of emergency shelters. Refugees build makeshift
shelters from locally procured materials. UNFF helps refugees fortify their
shelters.

Read more


LONG TERM EMPOWERMENT PROJECTS


EDUCATION

We enroll children in primary school, and free them of the burden of needing to
earn money by selling items found in the trash. We provide extra tutoring in
bridge programs.

Read more


INCOME GENERATION

We provide microloans to the mothers of trash-dump children to start businesses,
so that the families do not become dependent on our aid. The mothers have
successfully used these microloans for opening small stores and for making and
selling jewelry and dresses.

OUR PARTNERS

Our special thanks to all our partners.
Humanitarian relief work in the world's emergencies would not be possible
without them.
