Let Them Play

I’m not sure what images come to your mind when you think of education for girls in Afghanistan, but this recent photo is one of the best I have received in some time. Trust in Education is a grassroots organization spearheaded by one tenaciously generous man, Budd McKenzie. Budd knows that educational opportunity for girls must include play as well as study which is why the children in this photo have a slide–something not often seen in rural Afghan villages. To learn more about Trust in Education and additional effective and reputable organizations making a difference in Afghanistan, see the list of grantees being supported by The Khaled Hosseini Foundation.
