Waterborne Skin Disease Awareness Program
Our children in the slums frequently come into contact with contaminated water. Their slums are frequently flooded due to poor drainage. This water is not only in their streets, it goes into their water tanks as well.
Even though they drink water from the nearby water pumps, they bathe and do their laundry with this. It causes numerous skin conditions, including rash, itching, infection, and so on. So it was very important that they knew how to deal with these conditions before they get worse, like bathing in Neem-water, and how to purify the water at home using Potassium alum.
Flood is a common calamity in Bangladesh. This skin disease arise after the floods as well and everyone should know about these. So, our kids from outside Dhaka also participated in the program.
Testimonials of Shapla Foundation
Being a parent is very emotionally rewarding. When my child accomplishes a milestone, the feeling is indescribable and incomparable. If there is any feeling close to such, I would say it’s the feeling I get every time I open a letter from my child that I sponsor through Shapla Foundation. Dare I say, there are few things that are more rewarding than seeing the smile on these kid’s faces. Shapla Foundation has created an amazing and smooth process that allows its sponsors to monitor the breathtaking achievements of the kids.
