Who we are
A foundation rooted in memory, faith and service.
RUHA Life Foundation was founded in September 2026 by people who believe that the most meaningful legacy is a life spent in service to others. It is established in loving memory of the late Abdus Samad Mia and the late Rokeya Begum, and every charitable object of the Foundation is dedicated to their remembrance.
Our head office is in Gulshan, Dhaka, and our operational base is in Boalmari, Faridpur — close to the rural communities where so much of our work begins. Our working area extends across all of Bangladesh and, where the law allows, worldwide.
We work across education, healthcare, emergency response, social welfare, livelihoods and community development — serving the disadvantaged regardless of race, religion or geography.
