TV24 Desk: Faridpur High School student Nafizul is highly passionate about the universe and space. Whenever he gets a chance, he dives into the books on the universe and space. Recently, about 400 more books have been added to this little reader’s school library with the initiative of bKash in association with Prothom Alo Trust. He believes that this initiative will help him develop a stronger reading habit.

Going beyond the library of Nafizul and his school, Country’s leading Mobile Financial Service (MFS) provider bKash, in collaboration with Prothom Alo Trust, has launched this initiative to distribute over one lakh books to readers in libraries established by individuals, institutions, or collective efforts across the country. This year, books will be distributed at 393 libraries in 25 districts of the country.

Like previous years, bKash collected books from readers-writers-visitors who came to the ‘Amar Ekushey Book Fair’ held in February this year. Alongside, more books were added to this initiative with its own fund. This year’s book collection programme was held with the slogan ‘MedharBikashThekayKe’.

bKash undertakes this diverse initiative to make a wide variety of books– stories, poems, novels, scientific, religious, self-development books– available to readers of all ages across the country. In the last few years, thousands of readers-writers-visitors have joined this initiative of book donation.

It is mentionable that bKash has been the patron of ‘Amar Ekushey Book Fair’ for the last seven years and has been collecting books for the past five years. As many as 147,000 books have been donated to the schools and libraries established for underprivileged children in the past four years. The books for the underprivileged children have been collected from the readers, writers and visitors coming to the book fair. Besides, bKash itself also added books with the collected ones.

Prothom Alo Trust became a partner of the book collection and distribution initiative by bKash last year. This year’s book distribution initiative began with the distribution of books at Chuadanga’sSwayamvar Public Library. Till now, books have been donated to different libraries in Chuadanga, Brahmanbaria, Chapainawabganj, Rangpur, Jashore, Faridpur districts.
