Our Vision
The objective of Zara Initiative is to help Afghan boys and girls affected by poverty and conflict by means of providing food, shelter, basic healthcare needs, school materials, job opportunities, and youth development programs.
Our goal is to inculcate tolerance and compassion through education, mentorship and the revival of moderate beliefs, in order to expel extremist ideologies, which have crept into their society.
Our Approach!
Our team’s local presence and experience is providing endless opportunities for contributions to reach people who need it the most. Uncertainty and a constantly changing political atmosphere has been the main cause of donors avoiding involvement in Afghanistan.
As with any war torn country it’s always the innocent people and children on the ground who are affected the most. Our method of engagement is what sets us apart from others, operating directly in these areas with a grass roots approach has made us very successful in fighting poverty and illiteracy. Zara Initiative is a trustworthy partner that will help you make a genuine difference.
Ownership!
We have built a reputable working structure, both within the country and abroad. This arrangement enables us to operate in a feasible manner in one of the most culturally, religiously, and politically sensitive environment’s in the world. These educational endeavors and social enterprises are managed and run by the Organization’s president, who resides in Herat, Afghanistan and has been personally involved for nearly a decade.
