Dear supporters,

You may be aware of the terrible miseries of Afghan refugees in Peshawar.

Cold, disease and malnutrition have killed several children at in refugee camps and some refugees have been reduced to eating grass. After the US strikes hundreds of thousands of more refugees came to Pakistan. We are witnessing but can do nothing tangible.

Situation is even worse inside Afghanistan: Hundreds of thousands of drought and war-stricken people in Western, Northern and Central provinces have left their villages and are living in camps in a disastrous situation. Majority of children are facing diseases affiliated with malnutrition and many die of hunger everyday. Even people have been reduced to eating animal feed in different camps.

We appeal for your URGENT help.

If you get somebody or some interested NGOs/institutions to help in any way, please do it without delay.

RAWA have already distributed medicines, foodstuff and quilts/blankets among refugees in Pakistan and displaced people in Herat, Farah, Kabul and Mazar-e-Sharif. But what we have so far done is like a drop in the ocean. Your URGENT donations can save life of many ill-fated children.

Kindly send your donations in cash or a check payable to “IHC/Afghan Women's Mission” to the following address and inform us through email:
