Qatar Charity (QC), with the support of benefactors in Qatar, distributed school supplies to about 200 students from low-income and underprivileged families in Bangladesh’s Cox’s Bazar district.
The students from different grades of ‘Kabi Jashim Uddin High School’ in Kutubdia island of Cox’s Bazar have received the supplies that included school bags, uniforms, and stationery.
Rajab Ali, a government education officer, praised QC’s support for the students in Kutubdia Island where most of the people are fishermen who face economic hardships to meet their daily necessities, specially their children’s school needs. He hoped that QC would continue supporting other vulnerable students in Kutubdia Island.
“My father works as a labourer at a grocery shop, and can not afford my education expenses,” said Umme Habiba, a 7th grader, indicating that her father struggles to meet daily needs of her family. She expressed her delight with the school supplies she received from QC.
“My father is a fisherman and earns a very small amount of money through this work,” said Mohammad Tanvir, a 9th grader, adding that it is very tough for him to continue his schooling without the support from benefactors. He also noted that if the benevolent people continue extending a helping hand to him and other vulnerable students, it would be a great relief for them.
QC is one of the international organisations that attaches significant attention to underprivileged and orphaned children, and seeks to provide them appropriate education, shelter, and other services.
QC also provides educational services to students in crisis-hit areas and underprivileged communities worldwide. It builds and renovates schools, prints curricula, sponsors students, and provides school bags for children. In Bangladesh, QC sponsors 2,850 orphans, providing them with inclusive care.
