The opportunity to share my thoughts about OPAD gives me immense pleasure. Having a realistic NGO struck me when I saw underprivileged children, who were deprived of basic needs such as education, nutrition, and health care. Within a short period of time, OPAD has accomplished tremendous things for underprivileged children…

Our story starts way back in the days when extreme poverty and hunger ravaged the world.
In 2005, our founder recognized the urgent need to address poverty and its root causes. He believed in the power of sustainable development as a means to not only alleviate immediate suffering but also to build resilient communities capable of thriving in the face of adversity. With this vision, OPAD was born.
 
Our early years were marked by small but significant victories. We focused on grassroots initiatives, working closely with local communities to understand their unique challenges and needs. As we grew, we expanded our reach and impact, launching projects in areas such as education, healthcare, and economic empowerment.
