Dear Colleagues, recent catastrophic flood in Bangladesh affected a close to a million-people causing major crisis among flood victims. Additionally, three consecutive hurricanes in North America has caused tremendous damage to dwellings and infra structure and, wide spread flooding has caused further devastation in Texas, Florida and Puerto Rico. While a recovery process is ongoing, Bangladesh is facing an unprecedented humanitarian crisis due to a massive influx of Rohingya’s fleeing from neighboring country in fear of persecution. While we pray for the safety of friends and families, refugees and our citizens, they need immediate help for living and rehabilitation. These catastrophes require a combined effort by all of us. It is time to extend humanitarian assistance and help them to the best of our ability.
