Associations in North America FOBANA®!
FOBANA®, is a
non-profit, non-political and non-discriminatory, IRS 501c(3) tax-exempt
(Tax ID 26-1747615) organization. Year of establishment 1987.
This organization of the
organizations has been recognized as an umbrella, where Bangladeshi
Americans gather to celebrate their success and introduce their vibrant
culture to this multicultural country. Since its inception in 1987, FOBANA® has been working tirelessly in this land far away from our
ancestral homeland to keep our indigenous culture and commence it
to our next generation growing in the United States and Canada.
That is not all; FOBANA® has recently received appreciation for its work
to assimilate our people with the mainstream of North American people and
culture. Those of us who are working in spite of all obstacles in different
communities all over the continent are getting recognition from our
organization. In other words, FOBANA® is a symbol of our hope and aspiration
and a unifying force for bringing our communities together and for moving it
in forward direction.
It is not the time for strife and to settle personal scores, rather we
should become united. Through FOBANA® let's build a stronger base and to
that effect lets work together so that we can fulfill our dream in our new
homeland.
