Sirajganj Madrasa — Bookshelf + Bedding + Feast
The Problem: Sacred Texts on a Collapsing Shelf
At our family-operated Madrasa in Sirajganj, the wooden bookshelf holding the Holy Quran, Hadith collections, and other sacred texts had severely decayed. The shelf was leaning and at constant risk of collapsing, which would damage these sacred books. Additionally, the dedicated teachers at the Madrasa slept on worn-out mats on the hard floor, and the students rarely had access to nutritious meals due to tight budget constraints.
We Do Charity launched the 8th Project on January 11, 2025, with a target of 8,000 BDT to replace the bookshelf, buy comfortable bedding for the teachers, and host a special meal for the residents.
Immediate Funding & Transparent Delivery
The SEO community backed this campaign heavily, raising 7,650 BDT in just 4 days. WDC spent a total of 8,100 BDT, covering the 450 BDT deficit from our emergency reserves. Every expense was shared openly:
- 5x5 ft Wooden Bookshelf: 4,300 BDT
- 2 Mattresses & 2 Pillows: 1,950 BDT
- 2kg Beef for Feast: 1,550 BDT
- Transportation: 300 BDT
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why was the meat feast included in this project?
A: Nourishment is a core part of care. Rural Madrasa students rarely eat meat due to high costs, so we included this feast to bring joy and nutrition to the children.
Q: Who constructed the bookshelf?
A: A local carpenter in Sirajganj was hired to build the sturdy 5x5 feet bookshelf, which supports local small businesses.
Q: Are there other Madrasa development projects?
A: Yes, this project is closely connected to Project 14: Rechargeable LED Lights for Madrasa Studing and Project 1: Family Madrasa Eid Packages.
