This week, we’re celebrating the Bangladeshi Society for their fantastic efforts in marking International Mother Language Day last week.

Their dedication didn’t stop there—they also produced some amazing social media content to spread awareness and engage the community. Well done to the Bangladeshi Society for creating such a meaningful and educational experience!
