YOU HAVE SEEN PHOTOS OF AFGHAN KIDS AND FAMILIES SUBSEQUENT TO OUR PULLOUT FROM THE BATTLEFRONT IN THAT SHATTERED LAND.

YOU MAY NOT BE VERY MUCH AWARE THAT THOUSANDS OF THESE ENDANGERED REFUGEES ARE NOW IN THE UNITED STATES AND WILL BE TRYING TO SETTLE DOWN HERE IN THE MONTHS AND YEARS AHEAD TRYING TO ACHIEVE THE AMERICAN DREAM HAVING FLED TO SAVE THEIR VERY LIVES.

THE TRANSITION WILL BE MOST DIFFICULT FOR MANY OF THESE FAMILIES DUE TO THEE TRAUMA THEY HAVE EXPERIENCED AND THE CULTURAL GAP BETWEEN OUR TWO NATIONS.

EDUCATION, HOUSING, AND EMPLOYMENT ARE AMONG THE CHALLENGES THEY FACE.

SHOULD YOU WANT TO DO WHAT YOU CAN TO ASSIST WITH THIS HISTORIC HUMANITARIAN VENTURE, PLEASE LET US KNOW AND WE SHALL TRY AND CONNECT YOU WITH THE APPROPRIATE ORGANIZATIONS IN YOUR AREA.
