Born Under a Million Shadows

Make a Difference

Years of war have left many Afghan children mentally and physically scarred. Many parents have been killed or disabled, whole families have been displaced, and the poor still struggle to make ends meet. As a result, many parents have had to sacrifice their children’s education in order to put them to work.

The nongovernmental organization ASCHIANA, based in Kabul, was founded in 1995 to educate street and war-affected youngsters. And for as little as twenty dollars a month, you can make a very real difference in the life of an Afghan child.
