Int’l Turkish Hope School (ITHS)
extended its helping hand to deprived populace during Eid-ul-Azha by
distributing sacrificial meat in different cities of the country.
The Principal of the
school Mr. Bedrettin Suata said that: We see Eid-ul-Azha as a time to extend a
helping hand to our needy brethren. As ITHS we try to evaluate Eid time as an
opportunity to help the people who are most in need. Therefore as we have done
for last 16 years, we arranged Qurbani cattle of which all their meat to be
distributed to needy people in many districts and villages.
This year with the
donations of qurbani cattle done by the benevolent Turkish people living in
Turkey, Bangladesh, Europe and USA in company with Bangladeshi
well-wishers, number of the Qurbani cattle has been increased to 1619 (one thousand six hundred and nineteen).
Besides, about 182 Turkish well-wishers from Turkey and Europe came to
Bangladesh and participated in the distributions along with ITHS teachers. This
type of activities makes our Eids more auspicious. We
distributed around 230 qurbani cattle in the year of 2005 and gradually number
of qurbani cattle increased and this year we have reached the number 1619. I hope number
qurbani cattle will cross 2000 next year and number of needy people who are going
to get the meat packets will be greater than ever. He also added that very
strong brotherly links between the two countries will remain long. This event
shows love and very good feelings of Turkish people to their Bangladeshi
brothers.
Principal thanked everyone
who participated in this distribution and especially local well-wishers who
made this organization successful.
Natives who received meat
packages became very happy and thanked Turkish brothers who donated the Qurbani
cattle and gift packages and ITHS that organized this grand distribution. Some
of the villagers who received meat packages told: We are very happy today
because far away from us our Turkish brothers have been with us with their kind
help.
On this holy occasion
Turkish and Bangladeshi brothers exchanged their Eid greetings. Members of ITHS
participating in the organization seemed very happy and they have been given a
warm welcome by the natives.
