“Mora ekta ful ke bachabo bole juddho korechi.” – 26th March. The independence day of our country. The date the calling for the birth of a land was made, the land under our feet that we take for granted. The entire country wakes up in red and green on this day to celebrate the birth of our nation and pay homage to the brave souls that made it possible.

The atmosphere wasn’t any different at JAAGO this 26th. To mark this day the walls of JAAGO have been painted with vibrant colours with figures and images of little children that are only bigger versions of what the kids at JAAGO had drawn beforehand. The pictures depict what the children think of their schools. There are pictures of children coming to school in parachutes and everything else a child’s mind can imagine. Special thanks to Screaming Girls and Friends for this amazing gift to the school. People like Piplu Bhai, Himel Bhai , Mithun Apu and Bipul Bhai made this possible. Without them this amazing facelift of JAAGO playground would have been impossible.


The day on the 26th started with a painting spree for the children where they painted canvases and clay pots. The playground was filled with excited children as they pranced around with colours to put their thought on paper. It was amazing how the little children brought out their hope and aspirations so effortlessly on paper.
The children were then visited by Aku Chowdhury who distributed flags to the children to celebrate 26th march. He also donated books for the JAAGO library. Lunch was served among all the children of the foundation including the volunteers and visitors.
Another person who paid a personal visit was Farhan Chowdhury of Adcom Advertising Agency. and his wife. His personal visit was an inspiration to the volunteers. It acted as an encouragement to the people at JAAGO who toil day in and day out to keep the place running.
The day ended on a much different note. There was a blood test and a general health check up arranged for the children. Each and every child’s blood was tested for blood group and serious diseases. Each child was given a health form with their health details recorded on it for future references. Details like weight, height and bmi were among many other things that were checked and recorded. Thanks to the Arrangers for supporting the whole medical event.



This 26th was perfect in too many ways. Everything went smoothly, well as much as can be expected with screaming excited children running around, but what will be remembered is how the day helped the children and volunteers come closer together and unite to celebrate the birth of the nation they call home.
