bKash supports libraries with book fair donations

To enhance access to books for readers of all backgrounds, bKash, in partnership with Prothom Alo Trust, has distributed 120,000 books to 393 libraries established by different individuals, organisations, or collaborative initiatives across 28 country districts.

Like in previous years, bKash collected books from readers, writers, and visitors who came to the 'Amar Ekushey Book Fair' in February of this year. In addition, this initiative added more books with its own fund. This year's book collection program was held under the slogan 'Medhar Bikash Thekay Ke'.

bKash undertakes this diverse initiative to make a wide variety of books—stories, poems, novels, scientific, religious, and self-development books—available to readers of all ages nationwide.

It is noteworthy that bKash has patronised 'Amar Ekushey Book Fair' for the last seven years and has been collecting books for the past five years. As many as 267,000 books have been donated to schools and libraries established for everyone, including underprivileged children. Prothom Alo Trust partnered with bKash's book collection and distribution initiative last year.

This year's book distribution initiative began with distributing books at Chuadanga's Swayamvar Public Library. Later, books were donated to different libraries in Kushtia, Brahmanbaria, Chapainawabganj, Bogura, Rangpur, Jamalpur, Jashore, Faridpur, Naogaon, Sylhet, Bandarban, Pabna, Jhalakathi, Chandpur, Tangail, Munshiganj, Khagrachari, Feni, Noakhali, Cumilla, Rajbari, Mymensingh, Jhenaidah, Rajshahi, Netrokona, Barishal and Rangamati districts.
