Days We Celebrate

From religious holidays to United Nations observances, here at Afghanaid we love a celebration.

We get so excited when our supporters get involved too – whether it’s by spreading the word about our work, donating to an appeal, or holding your own fundraiser - your support helps to transform the lives of vulnerable Afghan communities we work with.

So this year, be sure to get involved with our International Women’s Day campaign, or help us mark Nowruz (New Year) on March 21^st! If you’d like to coordinate your own fundraiser on a specific day we celebrate, we will be there to help you every step of the way – just email us at [email protected], or call +44 (0) 20 3559 6647.
