It's that time of year again! Aid Afghanistan for Education and our community in Kabul just celebrated graduation for 130 students. I've added some of our favorite photos from the ceremony, but you can view all photos on Facebook.
During the ceremony, we were privileged to hear from a member of Kabul's Ministry of Education, member of parliament Shinkai Karokhail, and even a graduate's brother. All three of them spoke to the importance of educating women, especially mothers, and how AAE's programs are serving women who are otherwise excluded from formal education. You can view a short video of the ceremony speeches here (in Dari).
We're proud to say that these students will be promoting peace in Afghanistan, no matter how they choose to spend their next few years. Some will go to university, others will study to become teachers or midwives, and many will ensure their children study, learn, and grow safely. Together, we will make Afghanistan more peaceful, one graduate at a time.
Thank you for all you've done to support AAE's students and quest for peace in Afghanistan. We're so grateful to have you by our side.
