The RIBA Journal states; "Overall, the judges praised Fellows for ‘having it all’ – natural leadership, a collaborative mindset, energy, social awareness and a hard-working attitude.

Free Health Camp in Rajapur Village - September 2017

Mannan Foundation's Co-Founder and Trustee Dr Nilufar Fatema Luna hosted our recent free health camp in Rajapur. We are delighted to have our youngest volunteer in the health camp Sharar Chowdhury, who volunteered his time to assist the doctor during the busy health camp. The villagers expressed their gratitude for these free services which are always very much appreciated. Amongst the patients the doctor has treated mostly women and the children, however some of the patients were men. The majority of the women in remote villages do not see a doctor as they are usually male doctors. Having a female doctor running these free helathcamps allowed us to give services to the most needy and disadvantaged women who are grateful to see our friendly doctor Dr Nilufar Fatema Luna. They are able to confide in her as she is known to them and treats the villagers frequently. On behalf of Mannan Foundation Trust and the villagers, we'd like to thank you Dr Nilufar Fatema and also our congratulations to Sharar Chowdhury for volunteering and achieving such a good work.
