Current Campaigns
Join Afghans Empowered and Generation Outside Afghanistan for our appeal to provide daily Halal iftar meals for fasting Muslim refugees in Greece. Your donation will directly support the procurement and preparation of fresh halal meat, rice, and other food items (including fruit, water, dates, and sweets) to be prepared in time for daily iftar. We will distribute iftar meals through a small local mosque located in Athens, Greece, welcoming Muslims who are from the community, live in nearby shelters, refugee camps, and who are homeless. Our cooking will be done within the mosque's kitchen, and we will use traditional Afghan recipes.
Fundraiser: Support Greek and English Education
In partnership with Generation Outside Afghanistan, and the Afghan M&R Community Center, we are raising funds to increase enrollment capacity for our growing number of students who’ve registered. The community center provides vital education for newly arrived Afghan migrants, and supports their asylum journey through legal representation, education, and advocacy. Greece’s bureaucracy and asylum system is very difficult to navigate for migrants who do not possess language skills for English or Greek. The community center provides each and every student with the tools necessary to advocate for their asylum rights by providing language classes, and social/legal services.
Daikundi Winter Relief Campaign via Aseel App
Daikundi (also spelled Daykundi) is a rural province located in central Afghanistan and is mostly comprised of the Hazara ethnic group. The people of Daikundi rely heavily on their farm crops and irrigated land. However, this becomes a problem when rainfall seldom occurs. Add to the mix local markets that are a long distance from the agrarian Daikundi and brutal winters, and what occurs is many households having little to no food. In addition, many in Daikundi struggle to heat their homes this winter since transportation costs are expensive and the Taliban have imposed high taxes on coal, as mentioned in a recent video by Radio Free Europe / Radio Liberty. Much aid has not yet reached Daikundi and they are in dire need of it this winter. Please consider donating so that we may help the people of Daikundi.
