ROOT is a local, non-political organization established on January 1, 2006. Founded during a general meeting at Katlagari Bazar, the organization was launched with the support of villagers and community leaders from across the Shailkupa Upazilla in the Jhenaidah District.
Driven by the collective will of rural residents, ROOT was created to address pressing socio-economic challenges. By fostering a culture of mutual understanding and shared responsibility, the organization provides a collaborative platform—an “umbrella”—where community members can engage in free discussion, participate in decision-making, and implement effective, grassroots solutions.
To create a society where education healthcare, and social welfare are accessible to all, ensuring dignity, empowerment, and sustainable development
ROOT strives to uplift disadvantaged communities by providing education, health services, skill development, and advocacy for social justice, with a strong focus on women, children, and marginalized groups.
True societal development is only possible when every child receives an education, every woman becomes self-reliant, and every individual has access to their rightful opportunities.
ROOT is more than an organization; it is a movement—dedicated to supporting the underprivileged, driving positive change, and building a sustainable future. We believe that through education, healthcare, and economic empowerment, we can transform communities. ROOT is committed to empowering individuals, advocating for women’s rights, preserving the environment, and ensuring social justice. Your support, participation, and goodwill are our greatest inspirations on this journey. Together, let’s create a just, inclusive, and sustainable future.
