Established in 1999 by Dr. John Morrison, Acid Survivors Foundation is a Bangladesh organization that works against acid violence – an increasingly rampant occurrence among extremists and conservatives in Middle-eastern and Muslim-dominated countries. By raising awareness, preventing acid attacks and providing acid survivors with legal and medical aid, the Acid Survivors Foundation aims to provide victims with safer and better lives.

The core of Acid Survivor Foundation’s work revolves around being an efficient and reliable coordinating agency. By linking organizations and professionals that play major roles in the acid violence issue, the foundation is able to provide survivors with physical reconstruction, legal assistance and unparalleled support for reintegration into the community. It ensures that it will provide victims no less that the best medical, legal and social support there is.

Owing to its staunch commitment and support to acid survivors, ACG has gained worldwide recognition and has received the Human Rights Award of Amnesty International in 2005, making them a role model for other nations suffering from acid violence issues.
