Case for Support:
Ibrahimpur Orphanage
A Commitment to Children's Well-Being
The mission of For Kids’ Sake International (FKSI) is to support, educate, and empower children,
orphans, students, and families by providing basic necessities, including food, clothing, shelter,
healthcare, and education.
Shelter is at the heart our mission. For the next two years, FKSI is increasing its annual financial
commitment to Bangladesh to help ensure that children in our programs have access to appropriate
housing while continuing to receive the food, healthcare, and education they depend on.
FKSI's 2026 annual fundraising goal of $285,000 supports the basic needs and education of children
across our programs, while also helping fund the construction of the new Ibrahimpur facility.
Thank you for your interest in the children of Ibrahimpur and for recognizing the importance of
providing them with a place they can call home. Your contribution would help move this critical
project forward and bring us closer to providing the children with a new beginning.
Together, we can build more than a dormitory. We can build a foundation for brighter futures.
Project Overview
FKSI is seeking financial support for the construction of a new dormitory at the Ibrahimpur Orphanage
in Bangladesh. This project is part of a collaborative international effort involving partners in Bangladesh, Europe, and the United States to provide a safe, stable, and supportive home for orphans.
The original orphanage building was constructed between 1979 and 1981. After 45 years of use,
combined with Bangladesh's harsh weather conditions and older construction methods, the structure
has deteriorated significantly. Large and expanding cracks in the cement have raised serious concerns
about the building's structural integrity and the possibility of collapse.
Due to these life-threatening safety concerns, the 90 residents have already relocated to temporary housing. Their current accommodations are extremely limited.
The deteriorating condition of the building has been monitored closely for the past five years.
However, the significant cost of demolition and reconstruction, along with delays in the government
approval process prevented the project from moving forward sooner.
Today, the architectural design has been approved, funding commitments are beginning to come
together, and the project is ready to move forward.
The Building Project
The new facility will provide housing for up to 120 boys through 10 dormitory rooms, each
accommodating 12 children and will cost $600,000 to build.
The breakdown of the building cost is approximately $5,000 per child, or $60,000 per room. FKSI has
initially committed to raising the funding for one room, $60,000. Once those funds are raised, we will
commit to fundraising for a second room.
Funding Request
We respectfully request a contribution to support the construction of the new Ibrahimpur Orphanage
dormitory.
Your contribution represents a meaningful investment toward the construction of a new home, helping
provide the boys with the space, stability, and living conditions they need to thrive. The demolition is
set for the end of this year with new construction scheduled for 2027.
