Eid gift for underprivileged children
Int'l Turkish Hope School arranged its 4th "Eid Gift Distribution" programme this Eid-ul-Fitr and distributed more than 2000 packets of clothes, toys, stationery, biscuits and candies to underprivileged children of villages Basail in Tangail and Noapara in Chittagong, says a press release.

Four years back the school management decided to help needy children in different villages in Bangladesh. Since then, during the Eid-ul-Fitr every year, the school has been arranging this benevolent programme.

After receiving the gifts the children and their families were very excited. Some of the parents from those villages said "We are grateful to Int'l Turkish Hope School for arranging this nice distribution at our village. Our kids are so happy on the eve of Eid with the very nice gifts."

Bayram Saatci, principal of Int'l Turkish Hope School, said "The gift boxes brought not only a few toys and clothes to brighten difficult lives but hope and love from the school students."
