It's the Bangladesh Rural Advancement Committee. It's basically this awesome NGO that operates in almost every district in Bangladesh started in like '80 and now operates a well-respected bank and university. It's main purpose is alleviating poverty in rural Bangladesh, and one of the things they do is operate Aarong which sells goods made in a village at reasonable, fixed prices such that the profit goes to villagers.
