Merina Rashid was one of our society's underprivileged girls. Since her father died when she was eight years old, Dustho Meyeder Nirapad Ashram o Punorbashan Kendro (DMNAPK) located in Gazipur stood by her as her family's financial condition deteriorated. She found asylum at DMNAPK and attended classes there from elementary to higher secondary school.

I am very pleased with CLP. I sponsored a Computer Literacy Center at Refaitpur High School in my village of Refaitpur, Kushtia, Bangladesh. CLP helped establish the center in 2006, trained two teachers, and provided a structured curriculum for students. Through June 2021, the center continued to operate successfully, helping students develop essential computer literacy skills. CLP also supported equipment maintenance, troubleshooting, and the replacement of outdated hardware, helping the center remain operational.
