SpaandanB (pronounced spon-don-bee) is a 501C (3) non-profit organization registered in Northern California, US. SpaandanB projects underscore three fundamental need areas: education, health, and economic hardship.
SpaandanB embarked on its journey in 1998, stemming from an unstoppable will to give back by a few expatriate Bangladeshis. Over the years SpaandanB saw the reach and scope of its projects grow manifold, primarily due to constant championship by its donors and well-wishers. SpaandanB gratefully acknowledges this extraordinary fellowship with all its partners.
At SpaandanB, we firmly believe that our work is our moral dictate, a rallying cry from within, that goes far beyond the act of charity. We also believe that one day, unitedly, we will fend off all the barriers and create just, equitable access to health and education by the general population of Bangladesh.
