AFGHAN FEMALE STUDENT OUTREACH

The heart of our program is our volunteer teaching faculty, both professors and teaching assistants. Because of their generosity, our costs are limited to our small staff; data cards that enable our students to connect to the internet for our classes; our English language learning site; and online registration management. As a result, it costs us only $37/month to educate an Afghan student. Our Summer 2024 campaign, Building the Bridge, has exemplified AFSO's mission: to create and help our students pass over the bridge linking their current situation to their educational goals and career aspirations. We are pleased to report that we met our match challenge. Now the work goes on, and with more than 2,000 women hoping for our pathway, we need your support more than ever.

 

 

DONATE

• A contribution of $370 educates a woman for a year, and donors can be in touch with the student receiving their gift. CONNECTIONS CIRCLE members know that one-on-one communication is essential to student success. 
• $2,000 will pay for data packages for 10 women for one year. COMMUNICATORS make it possible for our students to attend classes and communicate with their professors.
  
• $3,700 will educate 10 women for one year. BRIDGE BUILDERS are creating the pathway for our students to complete their education with AFSO and universities outside Afghanistan. In thanks, they receive a book of stories written by AFSO students.
  
• A contribution of $37,000 or more will educate 100 women, one-fifth of the women we serve, for one year. VISIONARIES are the bedrock of our program, assuring that it can continue so long as women in Afghanistan are denied education.
  

Gifts of all sizes are welcome. $200 will cover data packges for a year of a student's education with AFSO. $123 will cover a student's education for a trimester.

We are grateful to our supporters for funding Dynamic Placement Testing this fall for all our students. This testing has ensured appropriate placement in classes, better student and faculty retention, and a firmer foundation on which our students can build their future. We hope to continue to offer testing, so donations remain much appreciated!

We are grateful to the Access for Good team at Ding Connect, the largest international provider of mobile top-up services, for supporting AFSO's data card program for students. Without enhanced mobile data, our students could not access their classes.
