Afghan Friends Network believes peace among nations can be affected in a very practical, incremental way: by forging friendships that enrich people and their communities.
Founded in 2002, Afghan Friends Network (AFN) is working hard to improve the lives of women and children in Afghanistan and empower educators in a country that has been ravaged for nearly 30 years by war and political strife. An all-volunteer, grass-roots organization, AFN efficiently provides support directly to the people who need it most, setting a high standard for fiscal responsibility and program excellence. We are are tightly focused on education, an area that will have a huge impact for generations to come. All of our work is accomplished on a very limited budget. We ask your help in order to continue our work.
