Surjer Hashi Network (SHN) has been operating a large number of clinics all over the country providing health and family planning services primarily to the low-income group and the ultra-poor people. The network’s mission is to deliver high quality and affordable health services to all. SHN is providing maternal and child healthcare primarily to the poor, the poorest of the poor (PoP) and the lower-middle income groups, who cannot afford quality health services from the private healthcare facilities. The network aims to continue bridging this gap.
Initiated in 1997 and funded by USAID, Surjer Hashi Clinics continued to serve the poor for about two decades through several NGOs, who managed the clinics until 2018. The clinics were later consolidated and registered as Surjer Hashi Network in 2018 as a not-for-profit company with a vision to provide health services to all Bangladeshis. The organization has an explicit mandate of achieving a double bottom line i.e. health impact by providing quality health services to the low-middle income group and meeting financial sustainability goals.
