Accidents
and illnesses resulting in disability are part of life in all countries
of the world. In Bangladesh these incidents are further complicated
by poverty. CRP’s aim is to reduce accidents in general and for
those who have succumbed, provide the best standard of treatment and
rehabilitation possible at the same time giving this support at a
subsidized rate for those who cannot contribute to their costs. It is
for the provision of this financial support that we rely on our partners
who donate so generously from countries around the world. Donations
are received from the Government of Bangladesh and funding agencies as
well as individuals and are raised in various ways from the proceeds of
flea markets and the sale of CRP calendars to contributions made at
Bangladeshi restaurants and by sponsored marathon runners. Financial
support is the back-bone of CRP’s work enabling those staff members on
the ground to work for the poorest persons with disabilities. We
continue to favour the Robin Hood method, taking from the wealthy to
give to the poor and it is for this wonderfully generous help that we
thank all our donors.
The
aim of this report is to share with our readers something of the work
attempted in all our centres across the country. We hope you will
find it encouraging. Our desire is to give the best possible care to
everyone in a holistic way, providing physical, emotional, social re-
integration and economic support. May we as service providers walk
alongside our service users and donors to realize this desire during our
next reporting year.
