Last year, Homebush Boys High School hosted a Ramadan Iftar Night. We worked together with our sponsor Human Appeal, which is an organisation that aims to strengthen humanity’s fight against poverty and social injustice, through the provision of immediate relief and establishment of self-sustaining development programs.
We had great support from our teachers, students and community members. Together, we were able to gather a large sum of money which was generously donated. Using that money, Human Appeal has successfully built a water well in Bangladesh in honour of our school name. This is truly an achievement for our school and a success for everyone who donated.
On behalf of our school, I thank Human Appeal, as well as all the staff, students, parents and community members for their support.
As our next Ramadan Iftar Night is upcoming up on the 7th of June, we would like to challenge our school and ourselves to raise more money to achieve greater things this year. We hope to use donations to build more water wells in desperate, underprivileged countries in the world.
