Project Ramadan 3.0 Final Update || Successfully Provided Food Support To 20 Poor Families
Hello everyone, I hope everyone is having a good day and you're all well and good. And if you remember correctly, about a month ago I had posted about an initiative I wanted to do about helping the poor and impoverished people of our neighborhood who are having difficulties in leading their daily lives during the holy month of Ramadan.
I am pleased to inform you that the initiative was a success, Alhamdulillah. And I would like to extend my wholehearted gratitude to all of you who have supported us in their own ways. I would like to thank everyone who came forward and those who have encouraged us in doing this. About 87.365 USD (approximately 10,560 BDT) has been raised from the initiative post I made earlier. And there were also contributions by my friends and families, and I chipped in some amount to cover the required funds as well.

Cash Memo
Here I have provided an account of the commodities we were able to collect for the families we wanted to help. The average cost which we could allocate to each family was approximately 1705.5 BDT (14.11 USDT). Now, even though I believe that capturing photos of the job we were trying to do isn't a good practice and the whole thing might seem rather odd, I still tried to capture a few photos because you all also deserve to know where and how your money has been spent and that assures some transparency of the whole process as well. I have tried my best to provide the rations to only those people who really deserve/need it.
Packaging & Distribution
Finally, Special thanks to @r-nyn, @starstrings01, @gwajnberg, @curangel, @riz611, @sourovafrin, @anobel and everyone who supported the initiative. MAY HUMANITY PREVAIL.
Alhamdulliah brother, may Allah bless you and give you strength to take such noble initiatives more in the coming days. It takes courage to step forward and it's a shame I couldn't help you with distribution or planning, still, satisfying to know that you successfully did it. Good deeds never go unrewarded brother, keep it up.
Ramadan Mubarak my friend!
Bringing hope for those who need!!
Hi @mahirabdullah,
