We cannot believe this can happen in a society where relatives usually throng a hospital when someone becomes ill. But this pandemic is teaching us many new things and showing its teeth,\u201d said Salman Khan Yeasin, a foundation manager.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cActually, in this time of corona, humanity is in a sort fading away. But in this case, we are trying to set an example of humanitarian approach,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The group has distributed about 1,400 fruit baskets since it began distributing them on June 1.<\/p>\n<p>Bidyanondo depends mostly on crowdfunding. It has built a partnership with the military and its agencies, and works with about 80 other groups across Bangladesh.<\/p>\n<p>Yeasin said while the foundation\u2019s primary target is to support patients and build awareness, it does not want doctors and other health workers to be forgotten.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMany health workers are staying outside home, away from their families to provide health care,\u201d he said. \u201cWe wanted to thank them. They also need mental support.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>So it has sent them cards. One reads: \u201cWe become brave to do more (for people) seeing your efforts, we know you will continue this fight to save our lives if we become ill tomorrow.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bidyanondo\u2019s efforts have been met with gratitude. Sumona Khanom appreciated that the foundation \u201chas come forward to help my father.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI hope,\u201d she said, \u201cthey would come forward to help all other fathers.\u201d\n            <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2020\/06\/18\/bangladeshi-group-sends-cards-baskets-to-coronavirus-patients\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If you want to read more Living News articles, you can visit our <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.buradabiliyorum.com\/general\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">General category.<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>if you want to <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">watch Movies<\/a> or Tv Shows go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/dizi.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dizi.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a> <\/span> for forums sites go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/forum.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forum.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;#Bangladeshi group sends cards, baskets to coronavirus patients&#8221; June 18, 2020 | 2:36pm DHAKA, Bangladesh \u2014 She was exhausted.
