Widow families in Afghanistan are those led by women who have lost their husbands, often due to conflict, violence, or health issues. These families typically face significant challenges, including economic hardship, social stigma, and limited access to education and healthcare. Cultural norms often place additional burdens on widows, leading to marginalization and isolation. As a result, many widow families struggle to provide for their basic needs and seek support, highlighting the urgent need for targeted interventions and assistance to improve their living conditions and empower these women 

Dark Days of Afghan Returnees: Struggling to Rebuild from Nothing

Let’s Help Safi and His Family This Ramadan!

Safi is a man who has fallen into extreme financial hardship, and due to severe struggles, he is now suffering from mental illness. He has two daughters and one son, but his life is filled with painful losses. He lost two of his sons in suicide attacks, and one of his daughters went missing in Pakistan. His wife, after suffering a head injury, continues to experience pain and suffering. His youngest daughter has a  suffering from  Congenital Heart Defect (CHD) and urgently needs medical treatment.

They have nothing to eat at home, and Safi is deeply in debt to the local bakery. The baker constantly harasses his young son, demanding that his father repay the debt. Safi, burdened by financial struggles and mental distress, reached the point where he attempted to take his own life and that of his family. Fortunately, he was not successful, and today he is still alive, still in need, and still waiting for a helping hand.

There is nothing wrong with Safi or his family—he is simply a man broken by life’s hardships. Perhaps if we extend our kindness, he can find the strength to stand again.

This Ramadan, let’s not turn away from those who are suffering. Even the smallest contribution can help provide food, medical care, and mental health support for Safi and his family. With your kindness, we can save a life and bring hope back to this family.

Help me in helping to keep this family fed until they have a visa in hand. Zarak helped Americans; now it's time for Americans to help him.

Save an Afghan family; save an entire world.


My name is Mah Begum, and I am from Sayd Khel district in Parwan province. I am a widow; my husband has passed away. I have no guardian, and I am solely responsible for providing for my family. There is no other breadwinner in my household. I go to people’s homes to work in order to earn money. I live in a rented house and have six children. My children are young and cannot work.

Help Mah Begum Who is a Widow overcome the difficulties of life

Hamid has faced some of the hardest challenges life can present. He has lost several of his closest family members and is now the sole provider for a family of six, his children and wife. In addition, he cares for five orphaned children who lost their father in the war in Afghanistan and supports his elderly, ailing mother. To add to these burdens, Hamid lost his job in Afghanistan, leaving him in a difficult financial situation.

Losing loved ones, especially in such circumstances, can leave families feeling heartbroken, confused, and unsure of how to cope with their grief. This is why our campaign is dedicated to supporting families like Hamid’s after such profound losses. We provide them with resources, guidance, and compassion to help them navigate these difficult times.

Through our campaign, we offer educational, financial, and food assistance to Hamid and his family. Our goal is to help his children and his family rebuild their lives after their tragic losses.

Our mission is to create a supportive community where families can come together to share their stories, lean on one another for support, and find healing amid their sorrow. By offering the tools and resources needed to overcome loss, we aim to help families like Hamid's find hope and healing in the midst of their pain.

Join us in our campaign to support families after loss, and help them find the light at the end of the tunnel. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of those who are grieving and show them that they are not alone on their journey toward healing.
