All the rivers and water bodies there had overflowed their banks because of the onrush of flood water from the hills beyond our border. Their homes, hats, bazaars, shops, and crop lands were under several feet of water. The local administration had recued the people and a accommodated them in schools that were on higher grounds. Villagers in the nearby areas were helping these people in all possible ways. yet ensuring drinking water cleanness and hygiene was a big challenge. The schools had toilets but these were clearly not enough seeing this situation, Ahmed, Swapna, Rakib, and Niladri quickly decided to go to Sunamgonj and work for the flood victims.

Everyone came forward to help them. Some guardians also contributed. Their collection was not bad – about taka 300000- with which they could provide some substantial help to the flood victims. They could buy dry food like high protein biscuits Gur (molasses), Chira (beaten rice) drinking water purification tablets toilet cleaners and liquid soaps.
