Bangladesh
"Bangladesh has been one of the poorest countries of the world since its inception in 1971. The country is overcrowded, poverty-stricken and disease-ridden. These people daily deal with rampant unemployment and corruption and they often live in conditions that are unthinkable.

The government of Bangladesh does not allow adoption in this country, so the only way to help support the underprivileged children is through orphanages and boarding schools.

When their families can't afford to provide for them or their parents die of malnutrition or disease, thousands of children take to the streets. In fact, one in every 15 children born in Bangladesh end up on the streets to fend for themselves."
