Dear friends,
Alhamdullilah, by the grace of God I have distributed a total of 50 bicycles among 50 unprivileged students from different parts of Bangladesh.
One of the students, Nomita said, “Brother, many girls from our village, who did not get a bicycle from you, are already married. Due to the distance of the school, they could not continue their education.
This bike not only helped us to continue our schooling but also saving us from child marriage.”
Like Nomita, I have gifted one bicycle for each girl from each family, so they do not need to walk 10-12 kilometers every day which takes hours for them. They become exhausted and cannot pay attention to their education, and they tend to just drop out all together from school.
Thank you all my friends for your kind support and humanity! Without all your love and support I probably couldn’t go this far every day.
Please keep me in your prayers so that I can continue my journey to alleviate the sufferings of the people at least for one day.
Love and Light.
