Newsletter February 2013

“Little drops make a river” is a very old Afghan saying. It kept playing in my mind over the holiday and I thought how well it described my work. So much of it has been achieved through lots of little donations. Bless you all!

Project Hope Appeal: Got spare change?

Education for children all of the world gives us hope for the future. This month we launch our new appeal Project Hope, where we hope people will contribute their spare change and every cent will go towards educating children in Afghanistan.

WELCOME TO MAHBOBA'S PROMISE

Afghanistan is one of the poorest countries on earth with the highest proportion of orphans and widows in the world.

Mahboba's Promise is an Australian non-profit organisation dedicated to helping the women and children of Afghanistan.
 
After decades of turmoil and conflict, the challenges remain formidable.
 
Health statistics are harrowing, poverty and insecurity are deeply entrenched. Half the children in Afghanistan still do not go to school and the literacy rate today is one of the lowest among developing countries.
 
Please help us to build a brighter future for the beautiful children of Afghanistan.
