Let Afghan Girls Learn

Since August 2021, millions of girls and women inside Afghanistan have been denied the most basic of human rights—an education. Afghanistan is currently the only country in the world that denies education past the 6th grade for girls. The potential loss of generations of educated girls and women will have a lasting and devastating impact on the development of both women and Afghan society at large.

In order to build a stable, self-sufficient, and prosperous future for Afghanistan, we must work to ensure that every Afghan child has access to a full and rich primary, secondary, and post-secondary education.

In pursuit of this goal, Uplift’s Education Fund supports safe alternative models of education that go beyond traditional classrooms by delivering high-quality teaching and mentorship in a home-based setting. Outside of Afghanistan, we also run schools for Afghan refugees to ensure children can continue their education despite the uncertainty that accompanies the upheaval of seeking refuge.
