Why support us
icddr,b strives to solve key public health problems through world-class scientific research and innovation as an international research institute based in Bangladesh.
For over 60 years, our hospitals in Dhaka and Matlab have been specialising in the treatment of diarrhoeal diseases.
Our work has led to the invention of the Oral Rehydration Salt Solution (ORS), which has saved more than 70 million lives. We use the knowledge gained from years of caring for the sick to train medical teams who are tackling disease outbreaks at icddr,b hospitals. We learn, share, and save lives through research and innovation.
Hospital Appeal Fund
The hospital fund allows us to treat all the patients at the world’s largest diarrhoeal hospital at icddr,b Dhaka, and Matlab absolutely free of cost. We treat around 300,000 patients yearly, and more than 60% are children. Join us in our lifesaving effort by donating to the hospital fund.
Endowment Fund
The endowment fund preserves our present efforts but also guarantees a brighter future, enabling us to make a sustained and meaningful difference in the lives we touch. Join us in securing our organization's enduring impact through the power of endowment giving.
Zakat Fund
Zakat funds from Muslims worldwide help us support the most needy who come to our hospitals. We provide medicines, food, and necessary services to patients monitored by the Zakat committee. We encourage Muslims around the world to donate their zakat to save lives.
Let’s save more lives together
Without icddr,b’s expert care, many would die from severe dehydration, cholera, and other diarrhoeal diseases.
Please help us to continue saving lives by donating to our $5 million appeal for the hospitals.
Your donation will enable us to provide lifesaving medical care and expertise to people whose lives are dependent on our hospitals.
