Eid-Ul Adha 2019 – Qurbani
For many families living below the poverty line in Bangladesh their diet consists only of rice and vegetables as the price of fish, poultry and meat is very high.
During the festival of Eid-ul Adha, a national celebration Smilez provided a portion of beef, sufficient for a couple of meals to 300 families so that they can eat high quality and premium meat at least once a year.
Three cows were bought from local farmers to support the local economy and then pay local butchers to cut and distribute the meat.
Smilez collected 7 donations of £100 for each cow. A total of of 21 generous donations were recieved to purchase 3 cows.
This was sufficient to provide a generous sized portion of meat to 300 families.
Thank you for your generous donations. Please see our Gallery for photos/videos from this campaign.
