Siam grew up in the slums of Rayer Bazar and went to one of the world’s best international schools, United World College (UWC) in the USA on a fully-funded scholarship. Siam was a part of the first 17 students at the JAAGO Foundation’s school in 2007, and through hard work and determination, Siam completed his International Baccalaureate (IB) program.

Tamanna Akter, a student from the JAAGO Foundation, represented Bangladesh at the Model OIC High School Summit 2022 in Turkey.

Lily Hossain, one of our first 17 students, called JAAGO her home, where she studied, attended classes and made friends. Now, she has returned to her roots- this time not as a student but as a teacher. She is using her skills and experience to give back to her community.
Fatema Foraje, one of the first 17 students, is a true inspiration – starting as a student at JAAGO Foundation School, she interned at the organisation’s headquarters while pursuing her bachelor’s degree. Currently, she teaches at JAAGO Foundation School and helps students in the community.
