Hurrah for the 2 Bangladesh teams - Canadian and Dhaka Rotarians. You will make a huge difference in the lives of the bedkit recipients as well as making memories yourselves.

Regards to Rowli and Gulru from Sally Jo, Bangladesh team 2011

Thanks MIke for the photos of the warehouse workers. I think some of the men were our helpers last year and did so much to ensure the success of the distribution.

Looking forward to lots of photos. Cheers to all - Sally Jo

Hello Team Bangladesh and Rotary Friends,

I always feel oddly homesick when I read blogs from Bangladesh.
You never forget your first distribution!
Looks like you've had a wonderful start to a well-organized distribution.

Stay well, stay safe.

Hi team - I loooooove the colours of the girls' outfits. Thanks Rowly for making that change. Michael, Else and I had a 2011 team reunion last week to recall what a good time we had last year. Keep sending those reports and photos.

Bangaldesh Team,
Jessore brings back so many memories and especially fitting that this is Remembrance Day (my Dad flew for the RCAF out of Jessore in WWII and the 2011 team did the first Bangladesh distribution here two years ago). I still get emotional with the honour bestowed at that time of "son of the soil". THANK YOU Rotarians for organizing a repeat distribution to Jessore and THANK YOU Dad for the sacrifices you and your generation made and that we remember always but especially on this day!!
Doug
p.s. I concur with Sally Jo, the dresses look great!!

Hi Team,
Thanks for the updates and wonderful pictures. So glad to hear that you are pleased with the way the distribution is going. I have many fond memories of my trips to Bangladesh.....the children, the culture and the Rotarians.
Please give my thanks to all.
Have a good one tomorrow!

Hello Team Bangladesh!
Looks like you are having an amazing, and oh so helpful experience in Bangladesh. I can't imagine a distribution of 1200 in one day! The most I've helped with is 800. How great to see the young girls in lovely dresses. Enjoy your remaining time there. Safe travels!

Hi Dad (George) and Uncle Mike and the rest of Team Bangladesh! Sounds like you had a very successful distribution and glad you have some time to rest. Love the pictures, especially of the children. Mom and I both tried to leave on a comments earlier using phone and ipad but they did not go through.

Miss you!
