Why this foundation exists

Talent is everywhere in our village; opportunity is not. The foundation is the long-term home for the school and for the community work Arafat Ul Islam has been doing in Chatlarpar and nearby villages for about eight years.

Where we work

Chatlarpar sits in Uttor Daldalia, on the western side of Ulipur Upazila in Kurigram District, near the Teesta. The Brahmaputra runs along the east of the upazila, and the low char islands of these rivers shape life here.
