The organization has branches in NY-USA, Canada, UK and in Bangladesh. It also has an NGO status in Bangladesh. 100% of the donations go directly to the needy children. Since the organization is heavily volunteers driven, it incurs minimum operating costs, which is funded by separate funding/donations raised separately for that purpose.   Home    Projects    Meetings    Donate    About us    Contact us   © Copyright SpaandanB Austin.
