Parachute Advanced Beliphool promotes education of underprivileged girls

Parachute Advanced Beliphool, a hair oil brand of Marico Bangladesh, has launched a special initiative to support the education of underprivileged girls in association with the Amal Foundation.

The programme will donate to Amal Foundation's Education Fund for Disadvantaged Girls through active online participation, which includes the sharing of a special video to raise awareness and specially designed for this initiative.

The initiative will continue throughout the month of May, said a press release.

To participate in the fund-raising initiative,  people need to share the video featuring Jannatul Ferdous Oishee and directed by renowned filmmaker Amitabh Reza which is available on the Facebook handle of Amal Foundation and Parachute Advanced Beliphool.
