The Winter Aid program distributes blankets, warm clothing (jackets, sweaters, shawls), and cold-weather accessories to vulnerable populations during Bangladesh's winter months (December-February).
About This Project
The program particularly serves northern regions where temperatures drop to 8-10°C, causing severe hardship for the poor.

Project Goals
- Distributing winter clothing and blankets to 5,000+ individuals.
- Preventing cold-related illnesses and deaths.

- Serving orphans, the elderly, and the homeless populations.
- Covering cold-prone northern and rural regions.
Who Will Benefit
