Daikundi (also spelled Daykundi) is a rural province located in central Afghanistan and is mostly comprised of the Hazara ethnic group. The people of Daikundi rely heavily on their farm crops and irrigated land. However, this becomes a problem when rainfall seldom occurs. Add to the mix local markets that are a long distance from the agrarian Daikundi and brutal winters, and what occurs is many households having little to no food. In addition, many in Daikundi struggle to heat their homes this winter since transportation costs are expensive and the Taliban have imposed high taxes on coal, as mentioned in a recent video by Radio Free Europe / Radio Liberty. Much aid has not yet reached Daikundi and they are in dire need of it this winter. Please consider donating so that we may help the people of Daikundi.
