Disaster Relief

Since the beginning, Quantum Foundation has stood by the grief-stricken people of Bangladesh during all major calamities.

During the devastating floods of 1998, 2004, and 2007, relief goods, including more than a hundred thousand packages of oral saline prepared by Quantum volunteers, were distributed amongst the flood affected people. The inhabitants of several villages were rehabilitated.

In the aftermath of cyclone SIDR, countless Quantum members donated money equivalent to one day's income or expenditure, and participated in the distribution of clothes and other relief goods.

The foundation took all necessary steps to ensure that the relief goods reached the neediest of the needy. A team of Quantum Organizers and Pro-Quantiers visited the worst affected areas in Bagerhat, Potuakhali and Borguna, and selected areas where no government or non government aid had been distributed till then. Around 15 thousand pieces of new and old clothes, books and sandals were distributed among more than two thousand families.
