We are dedicated to promoting and providing support to at-risk populations in Afghanistan in the following key areas: education, healthcare, women empowerment, community development and youth programs. We believe that improvements in these areas will result in sustainable and equitable social development and stability in Afghanistan. In addition, following the fall of the Afghan government in August 2021, Bamyan Foundation has initiated new collaborations with grassroots organizations and community leaders serving Hazara and at-risk Afghan diaspora communities in the United States and in Pakistan. These partnerships will enable Bamyan Foundation to provide support for Afghan refugees in the United States and humanitarian assistance to Afghan refugees, mainly members of the at-risk Hazara community, who have fled Afghanistan. Bamyan Foundation partners with reliable community-organized and community-sustained organizations that have demonstrated a sound track record of service and low overhead to create collective impact in the marginalized and underserved Hazara communities in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and the Afghan diaspora communities in the US. Our grassroots partner-organizations are meeting a crucial, locally identified need in these countries, and Bamyan Foundation supports their efforts to this end. We believe that continued assistance supporting programs in the above key areas will have a significant and lasting impact on social and economic mobility in Afghanistan, ease resettlement for refugees, and help the diaspora organizations to consolidate their efforts to create a larger impact. Our approach helps keep the overhead low as we do not have travel and accommodation costs due to a spirit of volunteerism and service coupled with an accountable and transparent system that we have established with our partners on the ground in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and the US. This ensures that every dollar raised goes towards our projects and those who are most in need.
