Help Educate Women & Girls in Afghanistan

Thank you for your support - it's changing the lives of Afghan girls. In a war-torn country, your support is the opportunity that Afghan girls need. 

See the impact your donation makes through a story from Zahra, a 10th grader in our Early Marriage Prevention Program:

“Before coming to this training I had the wish to become a president, but I thought it was only a wish and that for me becoming a president was impossible. Now, after having gone through this training, I know for sure that I can be a future president. I know and believe that nothing is impossible. Everyday after the training I went home and told my parents and siblings everything I had learned that day. Attending this training has totally changed my life. As a result, I now find myself very interested in reading books and learning.”

Supporting the development of Afghan girls is critical to re-building the country of Afghanistan. Earlier this summer, students from our newly-built school celebrated Mother's Day. The celebration was vibrant and highlighted the importance of mothers in the community. This celebration is tightly connected to Sahar's Early Marraige Prevention Initiative. One of the objectives of the curriculum is to strengthen the communication skills of Afghan girls to engage in difficult subjects with their parents. Including the mothers and fathers in the discussion is critical to empowering the young girls to be active participants in their educational future. 

Thank you for being part of this celebration - for being part of the community that's on the cutting edge of empowering Afghan girls.
