We are not here to offer financial help alone. Our mission is to improve the quality of life of people living with disabilities by helping society see them as fully included, respected, and valued.
We help people with disabilities see life differently. We ask society to see inclusion as everyone’s responsibility.
We partner with schools and colleges across Bangladesh to build truly inclusive campuses. Through essay competitions, debates, scholarships, awareness workshops, and interactive street-play performances, we help students and teachers understand different types of disabilities (including invisible disabilities), recognise unfair treatment like name-calling or mocking, and create environments where every student feels respected, supported, and empowered to thrive.
Our community libraries will transform village schools and rural gathering spots into beacons of hope and inclusion. We will enrich these libraries with inspiring books on resilience, success stories of persons with disabilities, life improvement, and tales that celebrate human potential beyond limitations. Through these powerful stories, children and adults in villages will discover that disability is not the end of dreams — it is often the beginning of extraordinary strength and achievement. Every book we add will gently challenge old prejudices, nurture empathy, and plant seeds of respect and inclusion deep within communities across Bangladesh.
Our powerful street plays bring disability awareness to the heart of communities. We perform short, hard-hitting dramas that expose everyday unfair treatment faced by persons with disabilities – name-calling, mocking, exclusion, and unnecessary curiosity – while showing what respect, empathy, and inclusion really look like. Performed in schools, colleges, markets, and public spaces across Bangladesh, these plays spark conversations, challenge stereotypes, and inspire audiences to become allies of inclusion.
We believe small ideas can create big change. DREAM Foundation provides modest grants and scholarships to individuals and organisations across Bangladesh whose innovative project proposals directly support the rights, dignity, inclusion, and mental well-being of persons with disabilities. Whether you’re a student, teacher, artist, small NGO, or community group with a practical idea that promotes awareness, accessibility, or empowerment, we want to help you make it happen.

Bhabananda Biswas (Bhaba) was born with severe haemophilia in 1982 in Magura, a rural village in the Jashore district of Bangladesh. He grew up in a resilient family that faced poverty, social challenges, and the daily struggle to manage a life-threatening condition. His parents raised two sons with severe haemophilia at a time when preventing bleeding was almost impossible. Bhaba lived through hundreds of painful episodes, sleepless nights, bullying, and social mocking, and developed physical impairment from repeated joint and muscle bleeding. Despite these challenges, he held on to a simple philosophy: education, resilience, and taking life with ease. He graduated from Khulna University in 2007 with the highest standing, completed his master’s degree with top rating, and became a university lecturer at Jashore University of Science and Technology. He later left this role to pursue higher study in Belgium with a European Union scholarship, and then moved to Australia to complete his Doctor of Philosophy. Bhaba is now a Research Fellow at the University of Newcastle, Australia. He lives there with his wife and two sons. His lived experience and belief in dignity, empathy, and awareness inspire the vision of the DREAM Foundation.
