Making a hostel, a home

The BBCF hostels provide a safe and nurturing environment for children to study, sleep, play, and eat together. Our hostels are located close to main schools, “so children who come from rural villages and often experience marginalisation are able to receive the education they deserve.

Our student homes

The BBCF South Asian hostels are well run by our long-term local partners. The first hostel was opened in 1984.

These student homes provide a safe environment, comfortable dorm-style rooms, nutritious meals, ground for play and sport, and tuition assistance. Our students are able to thrive, with many going on to become doctors, teachers or leaders in their communities.

Student Sponsorship

Become a student hostel sponsor, and join our bi-annual Zoom catch-ups where we chat with the home parents and hear all about hostel life!

When you make a hostel a home, you are meeting crucial needs such as healthcare check-ups for the kids, education costs, stationery, staff wages, food, and hostel maintenance costs.
