Background
Back in 2017 when the Rohingya Refugee crisis erupted, over 1 million Refugees fled from their country Myanmar to escape from the terrible genocide and ethnic cleansing that was occurring. These refugees scattered, running wherever they could for asylum and the place where most refugees ended up was Cox Bazaar, Bangladesh. Many camps developed and around 1.3 million refugees are currently residing there. Many organizations from around the world rushed to their aid and that is how BASMAH formed. From there the organization grew to the extent you see now, where we have multiple permanent projects inside the camps and other places of Bangladesh. and we are providing aid in many fields around the World, changing the lives of many.
