Dear Pragati Members and the Bengali Community of Greater Philadelphia, In the month of May, we announced our initiative to join in with our fellow countrymen and women to ease the pain of COVID related hardships and requested you to open your heart and donate to ease the pain and suffering of families across the board. I am proud to say that we collected Food cans for our local charities and raised $4350 for Philabundance and our frontline responders. (L-R) Subir (PRAGATI President) , Sharmila (COVID Charity Coordinator), Sunanda Banerjee (PRAGATI Charity), Debashish Purkayastha (BoT) I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for believing in PRAGATI’s message of care and passion and this current EC Team. I would also thank our Member Sunanda and Ananda Bannerjee for being a driving force behind this initiative. My special thanks to Sharmila Gupta for being relentless and personally calling/messaging individuals to raise funds and awareness. Special thanks to BoT for supporting this drive. Without all of you joining hands this wouldn’t have been possible. A HUGE round of applause to this passionate Bengali Community! Subir Gupta President, PRAGATI |
