Our Program
US EDUCATIONAL SUPPORT
Educating young Afghans, primarily women, and empowering them to improve the lives of the Afghan people is the foundation on which AGFAF was conceived.
Our students are selected through a rigorous application and interview process, helping us identify some of the best and brightest young Afghans. AGFAF works closely with qualified applicants in identifying educational opportunities and securing financial aid. At times, applicants have already gained college admittance and require support to bridge a financial gap in their scholarship award.
In addition to the financial piece, AGFAF provides emotional, academic and project support for each student who participates in our program.
SUPPORT ABROAD
Circumstances may make it preferable or necessary for a student to pursue their college education in another country. Similarly to their US colleagues, these students require additional financial support. Application and interview requirements apply.
These students may be beneficiaries of the same support as our US scholars and may collaborate with other AGFAF scholars during the year in the development and maintenance of impact projects.
