Ariana Boys Foundation ran a charity campaign to collect donations in order to buy and donate Blankets to most deserving families and individuals during this bone chilling winter season in Afghanistan. We admire your support and contributions in helping us reach to our goal of $1000 USD.

A special thanks to Mr. Aziz Basam, Kanishka Helaman and Samiul Elam for their tireless efforts and volunteer work in researching the market, coordination, and taking time out of their busy schedules to help and reach out to these families and ensure transparency of the process at all times.

Out of $1000 USD we used $900 to purchase 70 Blankets, each blanket cost was approximately $12.78 USD. We kept $100 in savings for future fundraising initiatives.

Thank you and God bless your hearts!

August Updates: First and foremost, we would like to thank you for your contributions and continuous support. Every member of ABF is dedicated to serve and give back to their communities. With your contributions since month of April, we were able to secure $300 of funds. Our initial plan was to find families and help them in the form of small business financing, but due to security challenges and logistic issues we redirected our focus from suburbs to Kabul itself.
We identified great initiative by helping educate orphans and make them successful members of the community. "An educated society is an empowered society." Our members in Kabul took time out of their busy schedules and committed to volunteer. Since they have other commitments they allocated their weekends for this work.Their initial challenge was to identify an orphanage with needs, and then make sure that donations are used in best possible way.
ASCHIANA which is a nongovernmental, non-political, humanitarian organization, registered with the Ministry of Economy of Afghanistan needed ceiling fans for their classrooms. They assist and support street working children, children with special disabilities, children at risk, and displaced children.
They have 10 classrooms in ASCHIANA's main center in Kabul, since Kabul has hot summer days, those children will study in classrooms with fans providing the comfort.
The total money changed to Afghani was 20505 Afs/- From which we bought 10 units of ceiling fans. Total price of 10 Qty Fans: 12,500 Afs/- with installation fee of 3,000 Afs/- We had 5,005 Afs/- left, our members in Kabul contributed an additional 2025 Afs/- Total: 7030 Afs/- With that money they bought 500 Notebooks, 500 Double-sided Ball pens (blue/black and red) and 200 pencils for orphan children. We have attached a copy of acknowledgment letter from the orphanage, pictures of classrooms and receipts for your review.
Again without your help and contributions it would have not been possible. "Small budget but used in a good way." Thank you!

"Don't give someone a fish to feed them for a day, teach them how to fish."

For past one year we have been trying to reach out to people in desperate need of financial assistance in Kabul,Afghanistan and its outskirts, but we are moving beyond from this so that we empower people with new skill set to become self reliant. We will buy a livestock (lamb, calf, kids or baby goat, or chicken) and help families raise it then sell back to local market, this way they will be able to generate an income cycle for themselves.

Our fundraising in past have helped more than 15 families, with food and monthly grocery. Having that same inspiration and desire, we are going to take this initiative to a far better and valuable cause. We will find 10 families in outskirts of Kabul by the end of month of May 2017. We have secured a trained farmer who will help these families with any health related issues to livestock. They will raise their livestock, after 3-4 months, hopefully by Eid-Ul-Adha time when demand for livestock is high, they will sell it with a profit margin. This way they can reinvest in growing more livestock.

You can contribute a minimum of $10 with no maximum cap. Our timeline is to raise $1000 by the end of May 2017. We will create a registration/log book for those families to be transparent and accountable.

Please help us empower our communities and those vulnerable Afghan families who have been suffering for decades.
Poverty and dependence on charity has turned to a culture in Afghanistan, we must take steps forward to be the change. We are ready to contribute, are you?

To Pay:
1. Go to your Paypal account, and use Send Money to Friend.
2. Send money to: [email protected]

Please let us know if you have any questions.
Thank you.

June 2016: Month of Ramadan

The month of blessings has arrived, with countless food on our tables, and hearts full of joy and content. Indeed, there will be families who might not have anything to eat or kids who may need clothes or school supplies.

It is time to not only fast, but it is the month of Staying, Standing, and Giving. Staying: patient, kind and thankful. Stand: fasting and the Taraweh, and Giving: Charity.

As we continue to help families in need, our goal for the month of June, 2016 is to exceed $500 of contributions. Hence, we would always remind ourselves, our families and friends about the teachings and best practices of giving charity. Here is a verse from Quran, Surah Baqarah, 2:225:

---
يَسْأَلُونَكَ مَاذَا يُنفِقُونَ قُلْ مَا أَنفَقْتُم مِّنْ خَيْرٍ فَلِلْوَالِدَيْنِ وَالأَقْرَبِينَ وَالْيَتَامَى وَالْمَسَاكِينِ وَابْنِ السَّبِيلِ وَمَا تَفْعَلُواْ مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَإِنَّ اللّهَ بِهِ عَلِيمٌ
They will ask thee as to what they should spend on others. Say: “Whatever of your wealth you spend, shall (first) be for your parents, and for the near of kin, and the orphans, and the needy, and the wayfarer; and whatever good you do, verily, God has full knowledge thereof.”
----

Obviously, you come first, then your family, kins then other people in need. Having said that, we have fulfilled our job to inform you about the best practices. But, when we are asking for your help and contributions, we promise that It is easy to give $20, especially when you find out that the money directly goes to families in need, those who are living with less than $3/day.

I am sure, those of us who make more than $50/day are capable of contributing around $20/month. For those who cannot contribute on monthly basis, whatever you can, is appreciated. Also, if you have any question/comments, please message us here or send an email to: [email protected]

As of now, we have collected $273 USD and going strong. Again, our goal for the month of June is to exceed $500.

You can easily contribute $20 to help a(an) family/individual that lives with a per capita income of less than $3/day.

To Pay:
1. Go to your Paypal account, and use Send Money to Friend.
2. Send money to: [email protected]
3. You will receive a confirmation upon receipt of the funds. If you do not have Paypal account, please create one. It is the cheapest way of sending money and saving the most for those families who would appreciate your help.

Remeber, your good deeds will return to you only in countless rewards. Thank you and have a blessed month!

May Month Updates:

Your donations for the month of May supported two families in Afghanistan. Each family received 10,400 Afghanis, 70% of the amount was given as cash, and 30% was used to buy a month supply of rice and cooking oil. Monetary aid was to support their every day living and medical expenses.

First Family: Essa Khan's Family, (Picture: Mom and the daughter).
A family of 5, where the father works as a gardener and the mother collects cans to provide for their three daughters. Despite their financial situation, the parents never beg. They value hard work, and dedication to fight the challenges of life, no matter how difficult it gets, teaching those values to their children is inspirational and must be appreciated.

Second Family: Faqir Mohd Khan's Family, (Picture: With two boys)
A family of 5, the husband is a clobber (Mochi) and the mother is a house cleaner. She has two sons and a young daughter who is permanently disabled. She has monthly medical expenses that are difficult for the family to provide. The family needed money for treatment, and your contribution helped support them.

We make a living by what we make, but we make a life by what we give. We would like to thank everyone who contributed for the month of May, and appreciate your good intentions towards this initiative. We continue to empower the society/individuals who are in financial need and would appreciate your continuous support and contributions.

Best regards,

Ariana Boys Foundation
