The sweeping bone-chilling cold wave continued affecting normal life in the northern region of Bangladesh. Many organizations and charities work to distribute winter clothing, such as warm coats, hats, gloves, and blankets, to help vulnerable communities stay warm during the cold winter months. 

Intertek Bangladesh took the initiative in helping underprivileged people in 5 locations (Angaria Bede Pallia, Upargar of Tulasha Union, Orphanage Child Center, Child & Women Madrasa and National Federation of the Visually Impaired) of the Shariatpur district, where the winter is particularly harsh this year. Our volunteers helped to procure 350 blankets and travelled around to this remote place which is around 80 km away from Dhaka city.
