The Kulczyk Foundation has today announced a new project in partnership with the HOPE Foundation for Women & Children of Bangladesh. The project will improve access to mental health and psychological support services (MHPSS) for those living in the region, with a particular focus on women and children living in Bangladesh including the country’s significant Rohingya community.

Persecuted in Myanmar, forced to seek refuge in neighboring Bangladesh and then exploited and trafficked to places unknown. That’s the reality for many Rohingya Muslims living in Cox’s Bazar – now the world’s largest refugee camp accommodating nearly one million people – as they are targeted by human traffickers and lured from the refugee camp with false promises of employment and better living conditions.

- We need to look at the world’s problems by looking at the problems of individual people, and solve them together with these people. Helping others requires providing those in need with a freedom of choice, and thus it needs to be based on mutual respect and understanding. 

We’ve made it! This month, the Yellow Plate program of the Kulczyk Foundation provided the 1.5 millionth meal since it was launched during the fall of 2016. What is more, in 2018, Dominika Kulczyk’s Foundation is going to spend another 10 million zlotys to help nourish children. – I would like to express my gratitude to wonderful people who organize meals for children in the places where the Yellow Plate program runs. It is together with such people that we can improve the everyday life of children – emphasizes Dominika Kulczyk.
