This event will raise funds for four families who are known to us. The overall situation in Afghanistan is critical, with two-thirds of the population in need of assistance. These families are still inside Afghanistan or in a neighboring country and living “under the radar” of authorities. All have a family member who served with the US military, in the former government, or in the UN system. They are at great risk of harassment or worse.
While the UN system and some NGOs are delivering critical food, health and shelter aid, our personal connections motivate us to organize a special fundraiser to relieve some of the immediate needs for a few people who are known to us. Your support will relieve the immediate pressure on four Afghan families.
Thank you for your help!
