Many of the houses are still at high risk of being disappeared into the riverbed. People are passing every night in uncertainty and extreme anxiety. During these difficult times, the Club Members of the SDDB project and the staff of Caritas Mymensingh Region stand beside the affected people by providing voluntary work and grants as cash as much as possible. Both Community people and Caritas staff are inspired by this very special humanitarian intervention. The people of the areas sincerely thanked the group of staff for this voluntary work and support and expressed that other groups/organizations may take this as an example to come forward with their supports.
