Support Afghan Refugees

As you read this plea, America is ending our twenty-year mission in Afghanistan. We RPCVs and other Friends of Afghanistan know that the children and grandchildren of our former colleagues and students will become Taliban targets and pay a steep price following our departure. We sincerely ask that you support our SIV-2021 initiative and help us bring eligible SIV awardees to safety in the United States. 

Friends of Afghanistan, EIN: 46-4928009, is a recognized 501 c (3) Charity.  Your donation may qualify as a tax deduction under IRS rules.
