I was able to help Shorna get out of her debt.


Dear Friends,

As I promised, by the grace of Almighty God, yesterday by repaying a loan of 80 thousand taka of Shorna apa, I was able to help her get out of her debt.

As you all know, I already bought a cow and a calf for her. The Cow gives 4 liters of milk a day and by selling them, she can earn about 300 taka per day. Keeping milk for her family, she can earn almost Taka 9000 per month. Alhamdulillah, with this money they are living a prosperous life as they wished for. In total the cow and calf cost almost 1,000 USD.

I have also decided to bear the cost of her husband’s treatments. I will also share a short video of Shorna Apa with you all soon.

Thank you so much my friends for always appreciating my journey. Nothing would have been this easier for me without your support and inspirations. Sending my heartfelt gratitude.

Please keep me in your prayers so that I may continue my mission to change the lives of people in need. To me, even one single difference counts.

"I see the beauty of people and the human soul in the pictures I take. And though the circumstances of some of the people I portray may be grim, back-breaking, depraved, the people themselves are always remarkable characters and souls" For me Photography is my language, to access, to communicate, to identify and mostly to make it hear. Through photography I only jot down my heart’s language. The best part about being a photographer is that I’m able to articulate the experiences of the voiceless and to bring their identities to the forefront which gives meaning and purpose to my own life.
