The Community Health Foundation Bangladesh was established in 1994 by thirty philanthropists from various professions under the leadership of Dr. AIM Mafakhkharul Islam. He believed that “the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step”, and he took this saying to heart.
The main objective of this foundation is to improve the health care service infrastructure in Bangladesh through community participation. This foundation has set up various medical camps, mobile medical camps and permanent clinics for the patients who are unable to visit hospitals due to financial constraints. The foundation also provides free treatment for those who cannot afford any kind of treatment but have serious diseases like cancer, tuberculosis and kidney failure etc.
The Community Health Foundation Bangladesh works on two basic principles: firstly, all patients should be treated equally irrespective of their socio-economic status; secondly, there should be no discrimination between rich and poor patients regarding treatment facilities.
In order to achieve its goal, this foundation is working tirelessly day and night under the supervision of its founder Dr AIM Mafakhkharul Islam who was an eminent physician and social worker whose death left a vacuum in his wake that cannot be filled easily by anyone else.
