Message
from the Chairperson
Welcome to Maitree,
a Non-government organization promoting different activities
related to women and their development. In Bangladesh a good number of
organizations involved with such activities. But, in reality women still
gets negligence from the society, in particulur from the so called lord of
women (i.e. husband, father, big brother). Maitree is headed and
maintained by Women. No men are allowed here. We believe that God has
given us everything to be self sufficient. So women especially energetic,
educated and having strong voice to improve our status are welcome to our
organization. Let's change the society.
