This is a sincere appeal to the goodness of our people in Bangladesh and abroad.
Please postpone your Eid-ul-Adha sacrifices this year. Donate that money and your Zakat to any relief fund of your choice. You may even want to spend it yourself on the victims of Cyclone SIDR. Another choice is to buy a cow/goat and give it to someone who has lost it in the cyclone.
There is no need to tell you afresh about the devastation of Cyclone Sidr in Bangladesh. I am sure you are all aware, more or less, about it.
We have lost at least 4000 lives as of today, and some agencies estimate the loss to reach as high as 10,000. At least 300,000 people have lost their homes and are living a subhuman life under the open sky with barely anything to eat or drink. If you want to donate to help these victims, please click on the link below:
Bongobandhu Memorial Foundation of USA [a 501(c)(3) charity organization registered (Reg # 56-2403796) in the United States], in collaboration with Shuchinta Foundation in Dhaka, Bangladesh, already has volunteers on the ground who will be distributing aid at the camps that has been setup for the affected in the Southern coast of Bangladesh.
So please come forward for humanity. Even ten dollars can help feed a family in Bangladesh for a week.
Please donate now:
And please feel free to share this message with any one you feel may be compassionate to this cause.
