About us
A small charity with a simple promise
The Fatema Foundation is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation registered in England and Wales in April 2025. We fund food, clean water and shelter in Bangladesh and support families facing hardship in the UK.
What we believe
Small actions, powerful change
We believe small actions can create powerful change when communities come together. A £5 gift can feed a family for a day in Bangladesh, and many small gifts together can bring clean water to a whole community.
We keep our work focused on three foundations every family deserves: food security, clean water and safe shelter. In Bangladesh our teams work directly with local communities. In the UK we work through community centres, mosques, churches and grassroots organisations.
