We are the privileged few, here in the U.A.E. We, at B-Change, suggest that our comfortable homes, fluffy pillows, shiny cars, and fancy handbags shouldn’t make us feel guilty – it should make us feel compassionate for those who don’t have access to these things. Our compassion should grow further to those who don’t have their basic needs met: Shelter, Food, Clothing and Education.
Choice to Change is an organization, started by Eva Kernova and Sunil Baroi, that helps those that are underprivleged- providing education to the children living in the slums of Dhaka in Bangladesh. Transparent, honest and earnest, you can recieve information of where every penny you donate goes [the right places].
