The AIL emergency aid program is currently maintaining its supplies ready for an emergency situation, be it natural or manmade. The harsh winter weather in Afghanistan has come to an end and the summer heat is starting up. Staff keep a certain amount of supplies in stock such as rice, beans and oil as well as cash as they can buy what is needed at the time.
Recently, a widow, who had received food for her family from AIL during the winter, talked to an AIL trainer and thanked her again for the food that AIL had given her. She said, "The rice, beans and oil were so important for my children to supplement the bread that I bake everyday." AIL is in the process of talking to village elders about additional vulnerable women and children who may need food donations during the summer.
TODAY, your donation can go further! Donate between 9:00am and 11:59pm and help AIL continue its valuable work providing emergency relief when it arises.
