Continuing this initiative, on Sunday, February 2, at 11 AM, sweaters were distributed among 1,000 children and students of Fulbari, Mirzapara, Kashiabari, Jadurchar, Balurgram, Chardhantola, Chartapurchar, and Uzan Jhagrachar Government Primary Schools. Additionally, from February 3 to 5, another 1,000 sweaters (katigaine) will be distributed to helpless women from various villages in the upazila, as confirmed by Rafiqul Alam Shaheen, General Secretary of the Rotary Community Corps of Roumari.
This distribution program was made possible with the dedicated efforts of Monowara Begum, Fahid Hasan Sumon, Abul Kalam, Hazrat Ali, MG Shahid, Ershadul Islam, Shamsuddoha, Marufa Akhter, and many other committed volunteers. Several dignitaries, including school headmasters and Sakhawat Hossain Sakha, the Roumari Upazila representative of Daily Kalbela and Amer Pratidin, were present at the event.
Speaking to Daily Amer Pratidin (news link), RCC General Secretary Md. Rafiqul Alam Shaheen expressed gratitude for the unwavering support from the Rotary Club of Dhaka Luminous and various well-wishers in Dhaka. He highlighted that beyond seasonal aid during Eid, winter, and natural disasters, the RCC of Roumari, with our support, offers regular interest-free loans to financially challenged yet work-oriented individuals. These include assistance for van purchases, micro-loans, programs for women’s empowerment, and computer training for educated youth. All these initiatives are undertaken with a spirit of selflessness and dedication to community welfare.
