A Change for Change


Thanks to Bangladesh Youth Ottawa (BYO)

Imagine a performance in the far away land of Canada with 400 plus audience. Now imagine all the proceeds of the event going to a small school in a small corner of Asia. A bit outlandish?

Bangladesh Youth Ottawa has made it possible. With their untiring effort and unfaltering dedication they have managed to pull off an event of mammoth proportions! All the proceeds of the 400 plus tickets sold were donated to JAAGO. The program not only helped financially but also was a big promotion of JAAGO Foundation in front of the Bangladeshi and International community in Canada. Special thank to Mr. Tarun Rahman, the President of BYO who made it possible.

Asfin Haider spoke at the event on behalf of the team back at home. She is the Head of Operation of the Liaison Office of JAAGO Foundation at Canada and she related to the audience the appreciation that we have for the organizers of such events.

In future we hope to see more and more people stepping forward to support our cause and help us to Rebuild Our Nation.

Sybil Get Well Soon

Hello Sybil, the children from our Foundation have prepared this for you. We and all the children from JAAGO wish will you get well soon.

Soap Distribution @ JAAGO

A big loud shout and a group hug to the newly weds, Murad and Lazina . Hope their big hearts combined can contribute even more to the society in need.

We, at JAAGO, time and again emphasize on the importance of self hygiene in kids. We are planning of a hygiene program that includes distribution of tooth paste soaps to the kids every month. But due to shortage of fund we have been unsuccessful in this endeavor so far. This is were Murad and Lazina came in with their brilliant donation of soaps for all the kids of the school. Thanks to the newly weds for understanding what is needed and stepping up to provide it!

Call 4 Rain Coat - Send a Child to School

Dear Supporters,

I am sure you all have noticed that the Rainy Season has arrived. Rain is exciting to some but to others like the JAAGO Foundation children life will become harder. As you all know, these children don't want to sacrifice their classes at any cost but maybe they will be forced to by nature. This is why the JAAGO Foundation would like to provide our kids with rain coats which will help them to come to school during this tough time. To make this possible we need your HELP!

Each Rain Coat will approximately cost:

BDT 200
AUD 4.5
CAD 4
USD 3.5
GBP 2.2

I am sure this amount is less then the amount you spend in one day when you go out with your friends to hang out or have some food. If you sacrifice the amount of one day, you can send a children to school and help them to have a better future. Will you help these underprivileged children to rebuild this nation?

We need 85 rain coats to support all the children. Please even ask your friends, family and relatives to donate BDT 200 to support one child with a rain coat and help them to come to school.

If anyone wishes to donate please give the money to

Iffat Zerin, Sponsorship Manager.

or you can also deposit the money in our bank account:

Bank Details:

Account Name: JAAGO Foundation

Swift Code: DBBL BD DH
Bank Name: Dutch Bangla Bank Limited
Country: Bangladesh

In total we need

BDT 17,000
AUD 382.5
CAD 340
USD 297.5

Thank you for your support of these amazing children.
