Sponsor a child in Bangladesh
Toni L. Silva
Many students felt so strongly about DCI’s mission that they became volunteers in the fight against child labor, hunger, poverty, and blindness. We hope to continue to schedule presentations and plan community service projects with DCI to benefit the needy children of the world.

DCI is a non-profit organization working to protect child rights and help families out of the poverty cycle through education, healthcare, and income generating opportunities. DCI also connects American youth to less fortunate children in other countries, educating them about the challenges facing children worldwide and inspiring them to take leadership in humanitarian causes. Distressed Children & Infant International (DCI) is a 501(C)(3) non-profit organization registered in the United States and operating around the world.
I congratulate DCI and its leadership, particularly its executive Director, Dr. Ehsan Hoque for the laudable work on the children especially under the Sun Child Sponsorship Program that provides long term support to underprivileged children and their families in remote Bangladeshi villages. This program has enabled hundreds of children to complete primary education with many pursuing secondary and higher education. The DCI Health for the Underprivileged Program is also reaching free health care including maternal and natal care to the doorstep of the needy in deprived areas. DCI’s vision and activities assures it becoming a center of excellence in child development.
