Many of our resourceful partners, however, have discovered that they can obey the letter of Taliban law while providing humanitarian assistance to neglected and underserved women, children, and communities, simply by following the spirit of Islamic law.
Our partner organizations, nonetheless, have had to cut services and skillfully find ways to navigate some of the severe prohibitions enacted by the Taliban regime. By clicking on the link to donate to our Turbulent Times—2025 Campaign, you will be sending aid to vital programs through PARSA in Kabul, supporting the “Doc Rollins” midwifery program in Helmand, nutrition, health, and education programs in Nangarhar, life-saving initiatives for women, and employment projects in Bamiyan, Mazar-e-Sharif, and Herat.
As always, FoA’s hardworking Board, Nancy, Terry, Jan, Elana, Phil, Baktash, and I, thank you for your continuing care and concern for the people of our long-suffering Peace Corps host nation, Afghanistan.
Ba Ehteram, (With Respect,)
