Sarah Rahman

Hi! I’m Sarah, and I’m so excited to run for BSOC President! 

This year as Charity Officer has been such a rewarding experience, from organising bake sales to doing photography for Galentines, every event has been incredible to be a part of. Raising funds for the Maternal Aid Association (MAA), supporting pregnant women and mothers in Bangladesh, has made it even more meaningful and I hope to facilitate more successful fundraising events as President! 

My favourite part of Bangla Society is the people. I’ve made such incredible friends and unforgettable memories through this society and, as President, I want to create even more opportunities for you to connect, have fun and feel at home in BSOC. 

Why me? 

• I organised the venue, catering and entertainment (including a photobooth and live performances!)  for our Victory Day Dinner – one of our biggest events of the year. 
• I helped deliver five successful fundraising events for MAA as Charity Officer. 
• I’ve worked closely with MAA’s fundraising team and BSOC’s marketing, events, and charity teams, building strong communication and leadership skills. 
• I’ve built connections with other societies, opening doors for exciting collaborations. 

As President, I’d introduce regular fortnightly events alongside our popular games nights — from murder mystery evenings to board game socials and even tennis tournaments. 

I’m so excited for the future of BSOC and I’d be grateful for the opportunity to make these ideas come true InshaAllah.
