Sabrina was severely malnourished. Her family’s village had no nearby clinic, forcing residents to travel to the city for medical support. WV Afghanistan established a health and nutrition centre under its DAWAM project treating children like Sabrina.

Grace, a 12-year-old from Milando, Zambia, dreams of becoming a nurse. She walks dusty paths to school daily, but owning a school bag is a luxury her family can't afford.

According to the UNICEF Menstrual Hygiene Management national report, in Ethiopia, on average, one in 10 girls, or 11 %, miss school for reasons related to their period. In some rural areas, missed school days are even higher.

When our colleague Mark visited Ghor in July 2024, he met vulnerable children, women, farmers, WV’s projects and WV Afghanistan staff who were affected by floods in this province. His heart was broken after seeing the situation of one of our colleagues’ family whose house was destroyed by the floods leaving them living in tents. He wanted to help and decided to run for 24 hours to raise funds to support this colleague and ensure he can make a shelter for his family. Thank you, Mark, and the 60 individual supporters who together donated over £4000 to support our colleagues!
