Jhagrar Char is a rural village located in Sherpur district, Bangladesh. One resident of this village, Ratri Begum, has experienced significant hardships. Sadly, she lost her husband a long time ago, leaving her with a single child and no one to support them. Ratri Begum has been relying on begging to make a living, particularly during the harsh winter months in North Bengal.
During a winter clothing distribution campaign in Sherpur district, ABABIL Foundation Bangladesh came across Ratri Begum’s story. The accompanying picture shows Rahat Hossain, a dedicated worker of the foundation, wrapping winter clothes around this vulnerable mother. After enduring a challenging journey and putting in tireless efforts, the foundation was able to bring a genuine smile to Ratri Begum’s face.
