Today we delivered 372 bedkits with the sponsorship and assistance of seven Rotary Clubs in the Khulna area. There were children from over ten schools, some coming from as far as seventy kilometers.
The venue was at a Rotary-funded school and we were given a rousing reception by the school children at the school; we enjoyed taking pictures of the children and shaking hands with them so much that their teachers were forced to hush them back into the classrooms.
We chose a good shady spot for the setups for the picture-taking, among trees and down-loaded the bedkits into piles organized by bedkits for girls and boys in two sizes.

We were greatly assisted in the distribution by the members of the Dhaka Rotary Club, as well as three Rotaractors: Shohel, Didar, and Forhad from Dhaka. As well, we had assistance from the Boy Scout Club in Khulna and others.
The delivery went so smoothly that we freed up Kathy to do a couple of interviews with parents that were quite interesting.
One very interesting event was to meet up with Rtn. Ferdousi Ali, the first woman Rotarian in Bangladesh.
Khulna is an industrial city and a major port in Bangladesh with a population of over three million people and is close to a UNESCO heritage site.
