New Cafeteria Opens at TCEP School Campus, Boosting Education and Nutrition for Disadvantaged Children

ADRA Bangladesh has made a significant contribution to the education and welfare of disadvantaged children by constructing a new cafeteria at the Tongi Children Education Program (TCEP) campus. This initiative is part of a broader effort to enhance school infrastructure and improve educational facilities for students in need.

The inauguration ceremony for the cafeteria was graced by notable figures, including Pr. Kim Sam-Bae, the President of the Middle West Korean Conference of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, and Pr. Ko Yoon-ho, the former Secretary of the same conference. Also in attendance were Pr. Bernard Baidya, Director of Adventist Mission, and Adventist Muslim Relations, BAUM, and Md. Ershad Mia, the UNO and Executive Magistrate of Gazipur Sadar.

The new cafeteria will provide nutritious meals and a welcoming environment for the children at TCEP, aiming to support their physical and cognitive development. By improving access to quality food and a dedicated space for dining and social interaction, ADRA Bangladesh hopes to foster a conducive learning atmosphere that promotes academic success and overall well-being.

"The introduction of this cafeteria signifies a transformative enhancement to our school amenities, fostering a healthier and more hygienic dining experience that will positively influence our children's health and nutritional well-being," said Shahinoor Begum, Project Manager of TCEP.

ADRA Bangladesh and the TCEP team would like to express their gratitude to ADRA Korea Chungcheong Regional Office, ADRA Czech, and ADRA Poland for their invaluable support in facilitating this construction work.

This intervention reflects ADRA Bangladesh's commitment to empowering marginalized communities and ensuring that children receive the necessary support to thrive in their educational journeys. The inauguration marks a new chapter in TCEP's ongoing mission to uplift the lives of disadvantaged children in the region.
