Rohingya Refugees
Scope and Impact
HBB is stepping up to assist Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh by donating money from our reserves to relief efforts as well as launching a fund drive. We kindly invite and encourage our respected community members to support the victims by donating whatever possible to assist those who are unable to help themselves.
To help, you can either “pledge” or “donate” through Paypal here.
If you choose to pledge, please give your check to a local HBB volunteer. Regardless of whether you pledge or donate, you can ask for a donation match if you are an Intel employee. To do so, please donate through Benevity here and enter “Rohingya” in the comment section. Please select “HUMANITY BEYOND BARRIERS INC” when donating through Benevity to ensure that we get your donation.
Your donation to HBB may be tax-deductible as per IRS regulations.
Progress Update
As of January 2018, HBB collected a total of $37,000, including a gracious grant matching by Intel. HBB is directing these funds to several organizations in Bangladesh dedicated to helping Rohingya refugees.
