Happy Thanksgiving to all. On this day, I hope that most of my readers are fortunate enough that should they suffer at all, it is because they are the victim of their qualities. Most people in much of the world cannot stake claim to such fortune.
The Asia Foundation has a wonderful donation program called “Books for Asia.” It has donated books to a school that, through NGO funding has been reaching out to two groups of formerly nomadic peoples in Bangladesh.
I’d like my interested readers to go to the following link and view the slideshow of stunning photographs that speak to this venture. I think that these photographs speak to our hopes for our uncertain future and, moreover, they point to the benefits of directed funding to help NGO’s and IGO’s to become involved in communities and to invest in people in communities, not just pay for non-discript aid programs.
Please find the link to the Asia Foundation page concerned with Books for Asia in Bangladesh and the slideshow of phorographs here.
