Join Us for an Evening of Stories from Bangladesh’s Slums

A community event titled “An Evening of True Stories from the Slums of Bangladesh” is scheduled for November 18, 2023, at the St. Boniface Cultural Centre in Winnipeg. Organized by the Amarok Society, a non-profit focused on education for disadvantaged children, the event seeks to raise awareness about the challenges faced by underprivileged populations in Bangladesh.

The free event invites the public to engage in an evening filled with music and storytelling that highlights the profound experiences of individuals living in the slums of Bangladesh. Gem Munro, a best-selling author and advocate for educational initiatives, will lead attendees through a journey of discovery, resilience, and hope. His work aims to shine a light on the often-overlooked voices of those in challenging circumstances.
