Environmental Poster Auction for Charityby | 16-12-2014 16:20 |

School students from six institutions participated in the competition. About eighty posters were collected and 10 posters won prize in two category. The event was sponsored by Rotary Club of Dhaka Mahanagar. While presenting the winner posters in a meeting, Rotarian Mahjabeen Fatima Omar gave a wonderful idea. She wanted to organize a fun auction to sell the posters to raise money for underprivileged children. And finally last Wednesday on December 10, 2014 I got the chance to organize the auction with the help of Miss Omar. Miss Omar and I went to a frame shop to frame the posters. We framed 11 posters that day. The auction was so fun, I believe everyone enjoyed the idea and was willing to buy the posters for charity. We have collected around $260. With the auction money we could organize another development program for the society. WED Poster Competition was organized to raise awareness among the school students on environment. I can assure you that the event had a minimum impact on the students those who participated in the competition. Rotary International is a group of community leaders and global citizens uniting for the common good. We all know that Rotary International has contributed much for Polio Free World. Rotary Club of Dhaka Mahanagar is a small part of the great community. |
