About JAAGO Hobiganj

Nestled in Habiganj, the school serves children from marginalized tea estate communities where job opportunities are limited. Most families rely on casual labor in the tea gardens, which is work that is highly seasonal and weather-dependent. With unpredictable monthly earnings of just BDT 5,000–8,000 (US$ 40 - $65), financial insecurity prevents parents from affording quality education, nutrition, healthcare, and basic necessities for their children.

About Our School Meals

Why School Meals?

School meals are a vital lifeline. In the communities we serve, there is no backup—without these daily meals, hunger takes over and learning suffers. By providing reliable, daily nutrition, you fuel children’s education, support their physical and cognitive development, and help entire communities lift themselves up.
