Who We Are

Relates to people with reduced upward mobility

People who face special problems such as physical and mental disability
People with a lack of financial or economic support
People politically deemed to be without sufficient power.

We are CNDP

CNDP was formed in 2014 (then known as Phulbari Support Group) by a group of Bangladeshi-born Australians, as a way to help the Phulbari English Medium Kindergarten in Bangladesh. In 2015, our founding members sought this opportunity to establish an official organisation that could have a greater reach and help many different communities both locally and internationally. Every year, CNDP hosts a variety of fundraising events including BBQ’s, dinners, and stalls at festivals. We aim to raise funds for people and organizations both locally in Australia and internationally.

Our Vision

To identify and work with the disadvantaged, weaker and vulnerable sections of the society through community organisations and networking to find solutions to the problems threatening their lives with the ultimate aim of establishing and aware, responsible and developed society based upon equality, fraternity and social justice, ensuring sustainable and holistic development with emphasis on human rights; and a culture of social service through creating and building strategic partnership with local government, NGO’s, community organisations and local communities.

Our Mission

Providing help and assistance to disadvantaged and poor people with regards to their own health, education, quality of life and to increase their awareness to get access to natural and economic opportunities, health services, education and employment in order to become self-dependent.
