Seamark charity auction boosts hospital project

 

Manchester Evening News (Manchester, United Kingdom)

01 September 2011

 

[What follows is the full text of the article.]

 

A CHARITY auction organised by a Manchester business and attended by 350 guests has raised PS16,000 for a vital cancer hospital project in Bangladesh.

 

The evening was organised and hosted by global food group Seamark, which has its headquarters on Hulme Hall Lane in Miles Platting. It took place at the Vermilion and Cinnabar restaurant and bar next door to Seamark's HQ.

 

The money raised will go towards a PS33m project to build the Ahsania Mission Cancer and General Hospital in capital, Dhaka.

 

More than PS16m has been raised so far in Manchester and around the UK, as well as the Bangladeshi government and business community.

 

The auction was attended by members of the Bangladeshi community from across the north west. Seamark founder Iqbal Ahmed plans to make it an annual event.

 

Mr Ahmed said he was delighted with the response to the latest fundraising drive, which included an auction of signed Manchester City and Manchester United memorabilia.

 

He said: "It was a fantastic evening and we are delighted with the money that was raised.

 

"Everyone dug deep into their pockets to bid for items. We have had great support from the Bangladeshi community across the region.

 

"This appeal is very close to all their hearts, it really is a vitally important project.

 

"The hospital will be a muchneeded centre of excellence for cancer treatment in Bangladesh and something that is badly needed to save lives."

 

Seamark, which has a major part of its seafood operation based in Chittagong, Bangladesh, has previously helped raise PS20,000 towards the project.
