Alingan Foundation

The slum children of Alingan Foundation were very enthusiastic in observing Victory Day on 16th of December.

Victory day is a national holiday in Bangladesh, celebrated on December 16 to commemorate the victory of the Allied forces’ High Command over the Pakistani forces in the Bangladesh Liberation War of 1971.

They started the celebration by singing the national anthem and then performed their recreational talents of singing, dancing and others. The celebration was ended by providing them with some school stationery which will be helpful in starting their new academic year. They were also given some food for the event.

We wish them a start full of hope and encouragement to their academic year and a successful outcome at the end of it.

After collecting a significant amount of donated items, we organized another garage sale on Sunday. 7th August. We would like to thank to everybody for your great care providing the donated items to support the project. It was a surprise for us to receive such a huge amount of donated items in a short period of notice.
