Afghan Internet and Schools Freedom Project

When children learn their world opens before them...
When the world opens before them, they can see farther...
The farther they can see, the more open their minds...
The more open their minds, the more tolerant their hearts...
The more tolerant their hearts, the less prone they will be
to violent extremism.

An educated child becomes an enlightened adult.

Funds raised will go directly to support the infrastructure and internet requirements of each village that requests these opportunities for their children and young people.

Each site is carefully selected through dialogue with local leaders and screened on the basis of villagers' willingness to participate, take ownership of their futures and desire for peace.

A Big Thank you ! to all who participated / donated at our inaugural event of 2013 at the pictoresque Barrel Oak Winery in Delaplane, VA.
Net Funds raised from the event total $9,333.00. The results of the application of these funds to the AFIS project will be visually documented here, so you can see the immediate positive effect of your generous donations.
