Summer Update 2010
By Sondra Johnson | Project Administrator
In the month of March AIL helped refugees from the Waziristan area (Bano, Bonier, Swat, and Malakan) who are living in the Jahozia refugee camp. These people have lost their land and homes because of conflict with the Taliban. AIL gathered necessary items like rice, flour, oil, sugar, dall, tea pack, etc. and arrived at the camp the morning of March 20. AIL employees worked with the camp security staff to distribute the boxes of supplies. The process of distributing the food aid went smoothly and was well organized. By the end of the day, 200 families had received a good share of needed supplies and were very grateful.

Summer Update from the Afghan Institute of Learning
By Sondra Johnson | Project Administrator
We’d like to share some great news with you that will give you a better understanding of our project and the work we do in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Through the generosity of the Skoll Foundation, a timely video was produced about life in Afghanistan and the work AIL is doing to make a difference. The film producer and crew did a beautiful job capturing the essence of the best of the Afghan people, and the struggles they work with to achieve a better life. This film is now on YouTube, and it will be the best seven minutes you spend today. Moderated by Sakena Yacoobi, AIL’s executive director, this video offers a true taste of Afghanistan. Here’s the link to view it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7t1Xu_MwHg
We are also adding this as a permanent link to this project for future viewing.
