A message from our students
Our mom's last words before we left Afghanistan were, “I could not get my diploma, but I brought up daughters who can.” Today, Afghanistan is repeating its history as the cruel rules of the Taliban continue to place a barrier on women's education. We stand at a pivotal moment. Together, let’s break down this barrier, rewrite our own story, and prevent history from repeating itself.
