Rethink Afghanistan (Part 5): Women of Afghanistan (excerpt)
Posted by Nick Holt on July 7th, 2009

A few weeks ago, we launched Rethink Afghanistan: Civilian Casualties with an action step to donate to the Revolutionary Association of the Women of Afghanistan (RAWA) for their work in the refugee camps and slums. Supporters generously responded with $6,000 in donations.

However, the truth is that RAWA can’t even think about delivering these supplies to the 1,000 family refugee camp in Kabul unless they’re sure there’s enough food and blankets for everyone.

We need $9,000 more (that’s just $15 per family) to care for ALL of these people before we can deliver the flour, rice, ghee, blankets, and tent carpets to the refugee camp.

Tomorrow, we’re launching Women in Afghanistan, the fifth segment of Rethink Afghanistan. Watch a sneak preview of the segment above, and know that when tomorrow’s Peacemaker email comes, your clicks, Diggs, tweets, and Facebook shares are desperately needed to share this important video campaign.

    With consideration for those who suffer in afghanistan, there is more needed than this temporary relief. It is deeply appreciated of theefforts of those who try to bring supplies. we have to rethink the future and long term prospects. We must all be accountable for this and other world issues, if not now when D.Dillon
