bmk in the Community
bmk also maintains ties within the local Afghan community by sponsoring and participating in charitable events such as a fall fund raiser for The Nowzad Dogs Animal Shelter. The original aim of this charity was to support serving soldiers on the front lines of Afghanistan rescue the companion animals they had adopted during their tour of duty.
