🎃🌭 Rotary Club of Howrah at Bunnings Mornington Halloween Night!

A huge thank you to our amazing team, Sue Morris, Jenna Willson, David H, and our special helper Oscar, for proudly representing the Club at Bunnings’ annual Community Halloween Night last Thursday!

Our team fired up the BBQ and served over 300 sausages in just 90 minutes, with 260 cooked and handed out in the first hour alone! 🔥 It was fast-paced, fun, and a fantastic way to connect with the community.

The atmosphere was buzzing with spooky costumes, excited kids, and a brilliant Halloween display by Bunnings Mornington. 🎃✨

Special shoutout to:
• David – for working the BBQ non-stop!
• Oscar – for lending a hand as part of our sponsorship of his Windward Bound journey this November.
• Jenna – for helping keep the line moving with a smile!
• And of course, Sue – for leading the team with great spirit and energy! 🙌

A wonderful night full of community spirit, laughter, and service. We’re already looking forward to the next one! 💙

Well done team 👍

🌟 Member Spotlight: MD Shohrab Hossain 🌟

Rotary Club of Howrah is proud to share the inspiring journey of our member, MD Shohrab Hossain, a remarkable young man whose life embodies the true spirit of “Service Above Self.”

Originally from Bangladesh, Shohrab’s passion for helping others began early. While studying for his Bachelor’s in Finance, he founded a small educational platform to provide affordable and free learning opportunities for students in need. What began with just one student soon grew to over 1,200 students, with many achieving admission to top universities in Bangladesh.

Even during the challenges of COVID-19, Shohrab continued teaching online and used part of his income to provide food support to families in crisis. His dedication to service and education transformed countless lives.

After facing personal hardships, including his father’s illness, Shohrab chose to continue his journey in Australia, bringing with him his values of compassion, leadership, and community service. Now in Hobart, he is committed to supporting people with disabilities, seniors, and youth through Rotary initiatives, working to build a more caring and connected community.

We’re honoured to have Shohrab as part of our Rotary family, a true example of leadership, empathy, and resilience. 💙
