As we celebrate 25 years of impact, WAW continues to invest in HER by advancing Hope, Empowerment, and Resilience through programs across Afghanistan and the United States. Through investments in Health, Education, and Resettlement, we create opportunities for Afghan women and families to rebuild their futures with strength and possibility. The evening will commemorate WAW’s 25-year milestone with opening keynote remarks, an Afghan dinner with refreshments, live traditional music, and a dynamic auction, all in celebration of the strength, resilience, and achievements of the communities we serve.
"What drives me is my empathy which is born from experience. I know what it’s like to feel stuck, overwhelmed, and unsure of the next step. So, when I see a woman facing challenges I’ve been through myself, I feel a deep responsibility to stand with her. I can’t turn away because I remember what it meant to have someone believe in me when I couldn’t believe in myself." - Shazia, WAW Caseworker
