Message from President

Today, I am pleased to express my pleasure that we are able to achieve our goal of objectives set as we committed to perform step by step to improve the life status of the extreme poor community peoples through undertaking need-based development program activities. Our human resources is needed to be increase as well as financial resources, because, without skilled human resources and availability financial  resources, we shall not be able to change the poverty condition of the extreme poor community peoples who are facing critical food shortage and malnutrition. Despite several risks facing, we were able to implement all the development projects undertook successfully, obtained expected results and made sustain the projects impacts as planned. The grassroot level NGOs like P Kapo Seba Sangha KSS are able reach to the hard to reach rural extreme poor population where the national NGOs can't, this is because we understand the sensitive issues, traditional and social and community-based barriers/risks which obstruct the development of the rural peoples, further, though the UN agencies and national NGOs working in the hard to reach  areas, the impacts are not derived as expected  due to lack lose monitoring and effective orientation services, but the local grassroot level NGOs can monitor and inspect the field level development works with the local based volunteers and successfully implementing the development projects undertaken.
In a survey in Naniarchar Upazila in 2007, we revealed that many interior villages' peoples/families face critical hunger, diseases and other problems where the development program and or development agencies do not reach there and the some peoples only heard about the name of NGOs, but they do not receive any development services there. 










In the conclusion, I would like to thank to the partners/supporters/donors for their continuous financial supports for our projects and thanks to the community peoples who contributed to achievement of our project implementation.
