𝐄𝐢𝐝-𝐮𝐥-𝐀𝐝𝐡𝐚 serves as an excellent reminder of our strong faith, absolute obedience, and unwavering submission to Allah (SWT) through the story of the sacrifice of Prophet Ibrahim (A.S.) when he was prepared to sacrifice his son Ismail (A.S.) for Allah's sake. This was both a test of sacrifice as well as of Ibrahim's trust, patience, and commitment to Allah; and he demonstrated to all of us what it means to submit to Allah's command. Through this incident, we realize that Qurbani is not just about the animal that is being sacrificed, but about the level of sincerity and taqwa that we are able to reflect towards Allah (SWT) each and every time. Hence, Allah (SWT) says:
“𝐍𝐞𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐧𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐛𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐬 𝐀𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐡, 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐬 𝐇𝐢𝐦 𝐢𝐬 𝐩𝐢𝐞𝐭𝐲 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐲𝐨𝐮.” — Surah Al-Hajj (22:37)
May this holy day be a reminder of what Qurbani really means to us all in terms of giving back; sharing love for one another through acts of charity; caring about others with an open heart; making sacrifices or being generous without expecting anything in return. May Allah (SWT) increase your faith as well as increase your appreciation for the blessings you receive from Him. 𝐁𝐑𝐀𝐂 𝐔𝐧𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐞 𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐦 wishes everyone a wonderful, happy, and peaceful Eid-ul-Adha to you and your families.

𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐫𝐯𝐨𝐫 is BURT's commitment to addressing unemployment at the grassroots level, in alignment with 𝐒𝐃𝐆 𝟖: 𝐃𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐄𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐜 𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐭𝐡. As BURT looks ahead, the initiative is set to grow each year, all because of the support of both our BURT Alumni and current members.
Tailoring and small home-based businesses may seem modest beginnings, but for the three families, they mark the start of financial independence. A chance to earn, to provide and also to move forward with confidence and self-worth.

Thank you The Noiseless News for the feature. Truly appreciate the recognition and support.
The BRAC University Response Team (BURT) successfully launched Project Shonirvor 2.0, a flagship initiative dedicated to fostering self-reliance and long-term social development. Held at the BRAC University Alumni Lounge, the event focused on tackling unemployment by providing sustainable livelihood support to underprivileged communities.
With the generous backing of university alumni and authorities, sewing machines were handed over to three families, equipping them to generate income through tailoring and small-scale business. The ceremony was graced by Dr. David Dowland (Registrar) and Dr. Mohd. Raeed Jamiruddin (Club Advisor), alongside representatives from OCA and OCSAR.
BURT President Shahriar Kabir Ayon emphasized that true impact stems from creating opportunities for people to "stand on their own feet." While BURT is widely recognized for its vital emergency and blood response services, Project Shonirvor 2.0 highlights its commitment to sustainable empowerment, ensuring these families can build a future of dignity and security.
