ABOUT US
OUR VISION AND MISSION
Born To Smile, an NGO pivoted on finding the roots and the expedient methods of tackling poverty. Its vision entails positive impacts towards education, sports, healthcare and empowerment. In 2009, Born To Smile commenced voluntarily. It needed a legal entity as it started working with different organizations and NGOs in CSR projects. Earlier in 2015, it got registration as a social consultancy firm in Bangladesh. In 2017, it was registered as an International NGO named as Born To Smile Europe e.V in Dortmund, Germany. Born To Smile helped over 6,000 people in Bangladesh from its inception. About 120 deprived children are getting primary education, sports facilities and healthcare for free in our school projects, named as Smile Point- for education and Sport for Bangladesh- sports facilities and fitness.
Our vision is to create and stabilize a hub for the entire nation to establish the change they would want to see in the country, to reach the peak of glory for a change.
Our mission is to empower people and communities in situations of poverty, illiteracy, health and social injustice. Our interventions seek to achieve large scale, positive sustainable changes through economic and social programs that empower both men and women to realize their flair and convert their dreams into reality.
STEP 1. FIND
Kids begging and selling flowers is a common scenario in Dhaka. These kids are either dropouts or have never been to school. They are being forced to prioritize such laborious work over education in order to support their family. We contact and enroll them in SMILE POINT to study.
STEP 2. TEACH
At our school these bright minds are nurtured and trained. We make them understand the importance of education in life. After providing them with the primary education, we admit them to government or NGO schools. We monitor, motivate and support them till their graduation.
STEP 3. SPORTS
We empower youths by providing sports facilities and training. Mostly to the children descending from impecunious and indigent groups. We ensure them a platform to showcase their talents in a wider audience. If possible, make a career out of their talent to become a great sportsman.
YOUTH LEADERSHIP
We provide leadership training and organize international conferences. It creates platforms for the young change makers and entrepreneurs to showcase their ideas, projects and expertise in front of a wider audience and get acknowledged and support globally. The event is named as YDE.
