Educating Afghan Girls

Benefit for Ayni Education International
Featuring Executive Director, Ginna Brelsford

Sunday, March 10, 2013 at 5 p.m.

Afghan girl readingAyni Education International provides educational opportunities for Afghan children. Ayni empowers and inspires those children and their families to strengthen their communities with peacefulness and fairness. Ayni seeks to build connections between Afghans and Americans.

Advocates for Women are hosting another delicious ethnic meal featuring lamb rezala, beef kebabs, vegetarian chapli kebabs, saffron rice, salad, naan, and two desserts (menu and recipes). Enjoy the flavors of Afghanistan while learning about the impressive work of Ayni Education International which has been bringing educational opportunities to poor regions of Afghanistan since the Taliban was pushed out in 2001.

You will have an opportunity to donate to Ayni, and all proceeds will be passed on to that worthy organization. The members of Advocates for Women are donating the food and all other expenses of this event. Please check out the Ayni website where you will find much more information about how they are bringing peace and empowering girls and their families.
