Expat donates Tk 5 lakh to cancer hospital

Rehana Begum, a Bangladeshi expatriate living in the United Kingdom, donated Tk 5,00,000 to the Ahsania Mission Cancer Hospital fund.
She handed over a cheque for the amount to the mission's President Kazi Rafiqul Alam yesterday for the hospital now under construction in the city's Uttara Model Town.
The hospital authorities will set up a bed after the name of Rehana's father Md Arshad Ali for this humanitarian donation, a mission's press release said.
Dhaka Ahsania Mission has urged all benevolent persons to come forward with their generous supports for timely completion of the construction of this hospital, where the poor and hapless people will get modern treatment facilities.
