Vision:

We envision an Afghanistan where Afghans have the resources to care for their basic needs, so that our focus can shift toward what makes Afghans and Afghanistan thrive and prosper.

Mission:

Our mission is to champion an Afghan-led development process through educating, empowering, and enabling the Afghan people.

Our focus areas power our strategic approach to realizing our vision: 

• Education: Education plays a crucial role in our vision for Afghanistan. Being informed is the first step to feeling empowered to take an active role in bringing positive change. 

• Culture: We view the preservation and revitalization of Afghan cultural heritage as critical to preserving Afghan identity and transferring knowledge and skills from generation to generation. 

• Humanitarian Services: The guiding principle in our humanitarian work is to support and equip our people with the tools and skills they need to get back on their feet. 

• Rural Development: For us, rural development is first and foremost about connecting Afghan people with each other and to essential resources, such as schools, hospitals, and the marketplace. 

• Media: We view the media as a tool to promote education, awareness-raising, public service programming, and cultural appreciation.

• Environmental Protection: We have added this strategic area to our work moving forward to help Afghanistan become more climate resilient in the face of increasing natural disasters.
