As Founder of JAAGO Foundation, I have spent 18 years working to provide education for underprivileged children in Bangladesh and built a network of 55,000 youth volunteers through Volunteer for Bangladesh. I wish to join Catalyst Now to connect with leaders in social development, share my expertise, and create opportunities for our youth. I hope to both contribute my experience and gain collaborations that amplify impact and advance sustainable change.
