New Beginnings

What can be achieved with so little!!!

Greetings!

As reported earlier, our mission now includes helping Afghan families make money. That includes vocational training, finding and providing employment, and assisting small business start ups, inside and outside their homes.

Or first vocational training program ended yesterday. The ten men pictured below, chosen from the sponsored families, graduated from a forty day cellphone repair training course. After meeting with their instructors and talking with each student, Mujeeb chose five to receive the repair equipment they will need. The cost of equipment for each of the five is $150.

We spent a total of $1,250 to provide ten men with a marketable skill and five with the equipment they will need to be employed by or in the cellphone repair business. If this proves successful we will of course fund more. Our ultimate goal is for the families to no longer rely on the generosity of others.

ANOTHER DAD FINDS A WAY TO MAKE MONEY!

With funds provided by his sponsor, Alem bought a stitching machine and is currently happily repairing sandals and shoes on the streets of Kabul. We are now responsible for funding five start ups; a recycling business, a nursery, a tailored coat business, a bird seed vendor, and Alem's. We'll see how many of the ten cellphone repair graduates find a job or start a business.

There's more I could write. But, I learned early on that's it's best to report on what has been accomplished and save what we're working on for later. The search for other education and income producing opportunities continues.
