Nooristan Foundation is celebrating 25 years of excellence in education and training for Afghan families and children.

Thank you to all of our donors and supporters who have made each campaign and project a success! 

100 X 100 CAMPAIGN

Our current ‘100 x 100 Campaign To Educate Afghan Children Campaign’ seeks 100 people who can donate $100/month to help support Afghan children’s education for the next 24 months as part of our ‘Enlighten A Mind’ program.  

The monthly donations will help take children selling items on the streets to support their families and move them into a classroom setting. They will receive: 

  • Remedial education for 12 months in preparation for private elementary education (basic reading and writing, math, science, social studies) 

  • A monthly stipend to help support their families so they don’t have pressure of working on the streets 

  • Backpack, school supplies, transportation, food 

  • Health/eye exams and therapeutic extracurricular activities such as field trips and art instruction (with budget allowing)

  • Entrance into a private elementary school for continual formal education after the 12 months.

You will receive access to a private Google Drive where you can see updates on the program.

Nooristan Foundation, established in 1999 in the United States by Afghan refugees, is a Section 501 (c)(3) non-profit that provides education, training, and rural development in Afghanistan.

Nooristan Foundation currently has three initiatives- EnLighten a Mind to provide education to street children, EnCourage an Entrepreneur to provide entrepreneurship + sewing training to women in poverty, and EmPower a Village to provide micro-hydro electricity and basic education in remote villages.

Nooristan Foundation has worked with several reputable organizations to implement projects and independently monitors projects to promote effectiveness and transparency.
