Friends of Aschiana UK has assisted the work of Aschiana, the School for Street working children in Afghanistan, since 2002.  From its first shelter in 1995, Aschiana now has centres nationwide, from Kabul to Mazar, and provides some 13,000 children and their families, with education, food and small loans’ schemes. It has survived the conflicts of Afghanistan to emerge as one of the most loved and iconic organisations in that country. Current programmes receiving FOA’s support, include providing education and a hot meal every day to 2,000 children in IDP camps outside Kabul and Mazar.
