Flooding in Afghanistan
Devastating flooding has occurred in 7 provinces of Afghanistan, including Herat. Many lives were lost and thousands of people have lost homes, livelihoods and now are in desperate need of the basics for living. AIL is working to aid survivors by providing food and clothing and possibly other items, expanding their usual food aid program to meet the needs of this catastrophic event. Dr. Yacoobi (AIL’s CEO) said, “It is a terrible situation for so many people, especially the poor who have few resources to draw on. They lack family to go to in other areas and have lost what shelter they had. Everyone needs food, water and shelter.” We have a special fundraising effort to aid victims. Can you help? DONATE above. |
