Overview

Shwapno Jatra is a charity organization, works for the happiness of others. We try to support people to make their life beautiful. In Shwapno Jatra’s first event, we decided to share the joy of Eid-ul-Azha with 6 children. We discovered that children have a fascination with a new dress on Eid. They also want some delicious food on Eid day to make the day special. According to this concept, we select 6 children from Khulna, Narayanganj, and Rangpur. After that, we collect donations from various sources and shopping for these children. During shopping, we focus on each children’s requirements like dress color, dress type, etc. And finally, on 25/07/2020 distribute the cloths and food items among them. Because of the impact of Covid-19, the children not gathered in one place. Our team members have reached out to them with the joy of Eid. Their safety is always our focal point.

Achievement

Our target for the first event was helping six children. We are so happy to decleare that we achieve our targeted goal. Our focal point was to make Eid special for helpless children. We are capable to fulfill our dream.

Impact

Eid means joy, pleasure. Children have many plans for Eid. But those families who belong below the poverty line fails to fulfill their child’s demand. Its effect on the child’s mind significantly. By getting these Eid gifts, the children were so happy. Their satisfaction level reflected in their smile. They started to believe that their wish and dreams can come true.  It enriches their dignity. The children’s families are also happy. Because they were incapable of buying children a new dress and special food on Eid. They were suffering a lot in their minds. Poppy Begum, the mother of Khalid, said,” My son wants a new Panjabi on Eid to attend the Eid-Ul-Azha Jamat. It was not possible for us. I am in a lot of trouble. But now Khalid is happy. Thanks to Shwapno Jatra”. Asma Begum, the mother of Jubaiyr, said, “I am unable to arrange Samai or some special food for my children on Eid. But now I can do it. Lots of thanks to Shwapno Jatra.”

• Limited Manpower. Lack of team members was also a fact.
