Cultural & Sports Program (Adolescent Program)
As part of its multidimensional approach towards sustainable poverty reduction, the PKSF has emphasized cultural activities and sports. Along with its partner organizations spread across the country, the foundation is working sincerely to promote cultural activities and sports, keeping in mind the qualitative change of people’s attitude. The OSACA run cultural and sports program started in Ishwardi upazila of Pabna district in August 2017. In the initial stage, surveys were conducted in every primary and secondary school in Ishwardi Upazila. 10 primary and 8 secondary schools were selected through the survey for the implementation of the culture and sports program.
The students of these educational institutions are patronized for excelling in cultural activities and sports under the sincere tutelage of the cultural and sports program officials. Local clubs receive different types of logistical supports from the program. Social values in this age of digital revolution are being washed away with the intrusion of the practices alien to our Bengali culture and heritage. The cultural and sports program arranges BaishakhiMela, Pithautshab and PaushMela to retain Bangladesh’s tradition and heritage. It also honors distinguished personalities of the working area by giving awards for their exquisite service to the people.
