Every year we send gifts to our sponsored friend Shanta and her family during celebration of EID. Shanta and her sister never had Eid gifts before. We want to give the same joy of EID to our sponsored child. –Reanna Rafiq and Gulen Rafiq Suwanee, GA

Sharmin’s family received 25,000 Tk to start a rice selling business. Ginuffa’s family received a cow and rickshaw van. Saiful’s family received the tempo & documents. –Nashra, Tafsia & Sharmeen Parvez Prosper, Texas

Thank you to Dr. Hoque and everybody at DCI for educating hundreds of students at Dodd Middle School, in Cheshire, Connecticut, about the needs of impoverished children in Bangladesh and throughout the world. It has been our pleasure to run community service projects to donate hundreds of books and sponsor five children. After reading the children’s education updates, we were impressed to learn how much each child progressed within only six months. Many students felt so strongly about DCI’s mission that they became volunteers in the fight against child labor, hunger, poverty, and blindness. We hope to continue to schedule presentations and plan community service projects with DCI to benefit the needy children of the world. –Toni L. Silva Social Studies Teacher, Dodd Middle School Cheshire, CT

DCI is working hard to reach its goal of preventing the cycle of poverty through education and health care. Recently, I had an opportunity to visit our Hobiganj project under the Sun Child Sponsorship Program. It was an enlightening experience shared by each of us, making our visit to Bangladesh an unforgettable memory. My family and I have met various students from several different schools located within one area. They have been provided with suitable learning materials for school, and have access to the best form of education that they are able to receive. Seeing that they are placed under strong able hands promotes more determination from me to work with DCI. I take this opportunity to express my deepest gratitude to all the volunteers, sponsors, donors and well-wishers for their dedication and commitment to DCI’s mission and vision. –Saleh M Kibria Los Angeles, California
