Afghanistan Humanitarian Crisis Aid Fund

About

This Fund is a combination of two funds created to help support those affected by the current Humanitarian Crisis in Afghanistan. Descriptions are taken directly from GlobalGiving and Bright Funds (source links below) and I have noted the organization that selected and vetted the nonprofits.

Sakena Fund

"The nation of Afghanistan is in turmoil and many families have fled from their homes, seeking safety. We have 300,000 internal refugees and 80,000 children who lack shelter and food. Many people have come to AIL facilities; our centers, offices and clinics are overwhelmed with needy people. We need funds to purchase food and provide clothing, shelter supplies, school supplies, medicines and hygiene items like soap, masks and sanitizers.

Poor Afghans in Afghanistan are particularly vulnerable in times of disaster, whether natural or economic. Those without jobs, food or homes face starvation in harsh winter weather or after other natural disasters or following displacement. In recent years, there have been landslides, earthquakes and flooding incidents where we have been able to provide help."

Note Afghan Institute of Learning (AIL) is not registered in the USA as a 501(c)3 non profit and does not have a US bank account. Therefore all donations flow through Creating Hope International (CHI) which is a registered 501(c)3: https://www.afghaninstituteoflearning.org/how-to-donate.html

International Rescue Committee (IRC)

"The IRC is providing uprooted families with tents, clean water, sanitation and other basic necessities. They are appealing for funds to ensure their teams can continue to deliver lifesaving aid in areas of conflict, as well as provide emergency cash assistance and protection services for internally displaced people in Kabul. In the US they resettle Afghan refugees with housing, employment, health care, education and other comprehensive services. In recent years, the IRC has become one of the leaders in women’s protection and empowerment in Afghanistan." Fund from 2021 Afghanistan Emergency Aid Fund by Bright Funds
