Families have dry flour in their homes to make bread, but can't afford the material to do it. So they eat dry flour. Can you imagine that? 

Afghanistan is experiencing the worst humanitarian crisis of its contemporary history. Due to the Taliban takeover and the sanctions applied to the country, Afghanistan is facing one of its worst winters yet. Families are being forced to sell their children and organs just to eat. Where there used to be a meal cooked once a day, meals are now being cooked only once a week. The United Nations estimated that 97% of Afghanistan's population could plunge into poverty by the middle of the year. 

How Will We Help? 

With the help of Afghan refugees in Delhi like Sonia Quraishi and Nasib Popal, we have been able to create a network of honest and reliable contacts back in Afghanistan to help us get the aid to those who need it. We teamed up with local tandoors in Kabul, Afghanistan to supply 600 breads a day for 30 days to poor women and their dependents via our food truck. Your donations will help pay for this bread, which will be distributed to those families that are absolutely without any help. This includes families from the Hazara ethnic group that have been especially assaulted by the Taliban. Our food truck will go by the name of "Bread From Rihana." If these families get food to eat, they won't be forced to sell their children. It costs only $0.13 for one bread. You can save a child with just thirteen cents! That's spare change! Help us help them, and we'll provide video proof of your aid and be sure to mention your name to them so they can give you their blessings. The blessings of a truly poor family is the biggest wealth that one can obtain.  

Collect Good Karma & Don't Let This Opportunity Pass You By...

As a director working on a film about women's plight in Afghanistan, I've become very close to working with the Afghan refugees in Delhi, India. It was through our research analyst, Sonia Qureshi, that I got to know first-hand accounts of the struggles of the families there. Her younger brother, Zaki, who lives in Afghanistan, told me that he had been approached by a mother looking to sell her daughter. Immediately, we decided to help. But how do you send aid to a country that has been cut off by the world and has its bank accounts frozen? Luckily, we found about Western Union and I immediately transferred cash to Zaki. The mother had dressed her daughtere up five minutes before Zaki would arrive so that her daughter would look good for the sale. When Zaki opened the door to that lady's house to give her the aid, her daughter immediately began shrieking in terror. She thought Zaki was there to buy him. When they realized he was just there to help, they broke down in tears. They said that several NGOs had come along to interview them and take photos of them, but no one helped. With so many NGOs and non-profits claiming to send aid to these families, it really saddened me to think that it hardly reaches them. But now we have found a way to enter a country that is impossible to enter: through honest, reliable and caring citizens that these Afghan refugees have helped us find.
