Winter has arrived, so is the misery of the poor people of Bangladesh who cannot afford to get warm clothes and shelter to protect them. Even today, death of elderly people and small children due to cold is not uncommon. Even in Dhaka city, the street children struggle to survive the chilly nights.
To reduce the suffering of a few of these people, initiative was taken by the Department of Pharmacy. The Department of Pharmacy with the help of BUPS (BRAC University Pharma Society) distributed warm blankets to the underprivileged poor people at the Gulshan Central Mosque on the 30th of December 2014. Hopefully in future such initiatives will be taken on a larger scale to help the poor living amongst us.
