About this Campaign

Workers Owning Their Rickshaws

Help 100 rickshaw pullers buy their own rickshaws and form a cooperative.

The Current Reality

  • Rickshaw pullers pay 100-150 BDT daily rent to owners
  • Work 12+ hours just to pay rent and earn survival wages
  • No ownership, no security

The Cooperative Model

  • Pullers own their rickshaws collectively
  • No more rental payments
  • Earnings go to pullers, not owners
  • Health insurance through cooperative
  • Retirement savings

Funding Needed

  • 100 new rickshaws: 30 lakh BDT
  • Cooperative registration and setup: 2 lakh BDT
  • Training and capacity building: 3 lakh BDT

Impact

100 families freed from the rickshaw rent trap.
