Afghan School Site Selected

Hopeful Hearts announced last month the opening of a new school for street children in Kabul, Afghanistan.  The project is well under way and final preparations are being made for our grand opening in March 2009.   School teachers and staff are already in place and anxiously awaiting the arrival of 100 children in March 2009.

This school will provide an education opportunity for approximately 100 children.  For these children it will be their first opportunity to attend a structured school program.   The school will provide all educational materials, school supplies, and a hot lunch every day.  Years and years of war have taken a toll on this country and the children are suffering the consequences.  Most of these children will come from war torn families where they are either orphaned or the primary breadwinner for the family.

Total estimated cost for this project is $41,000 per year.  Please consider sponsoring a child for an entire year for as little as $34/mo or $400/year.
