A son's tribute that became a community's habit.
The foundation was started in 2005 by Md Monir Hossain in memory of his father, Siraj Mia. Twenty years later, it is still run by the family, and still shows up every week.
মানুষের কল্যাণে, মানবতার সেবায়, সব সময়
For the welfare of people, in the service of humanity, always.
Where it started
Siraj Mia believed in hospitality, in community, and in the quiet dignity of helping people without expecting anything back. When he passed, his son Md Monir Hossain wanted that spirit to live on in something more durable than memory.
So in 2005 he started a foundation with one rule: give back in a structured way. The first project was a school in Badda. Then came emergency relief, then Ramadan Iftar, and in 2025 the Friday meal that now feeds hundreds every week.
For twenty years the family paid for all of it. This year, for the first time, the community is invited to take part.
Twenty years in seven lines

What we hold to
Every decision comes back to one question: what is best for the people we serve. They are not beneficiaries. They are the reason we exist.
Every taka is recorded, every programme has its own books, and the figures on this site come straight from them.
The school, the Friday meal and the office are all in Badda, Dhaka. The foundation serves the area it comes from.
Twenty years without stopping. People depend on the Friday meal, so it happens every Friday, whatever else is going on.
