What can everyday people possibly do to combat violent extremism?
Families and friends of loved ones killed in the terrorist attacks of 9/11 grappled
with that same question.
It inspired them to create the Safer World Fund to
support education, vocational training, and health care for people in Afghanistan
and Pakistan, particularly girls and women.
Today, you can join them in building a safer world.
Donate to send an Afghan girl to school, provide job training to women in Pakistan,
or open a new medical clinic in rural Afghanistan and your gift will be matched,
while funds remain.
