There is ongoing need for food aid for poor Afghan families. Many families’ main income is from day laboring. The worker seeks a job for that day which enables him to buy food that evening for the family.
This is a precarious existence which is adversely affected by local economic downturn, bad weather may halt construction jobs that day, excess workers mean there is not enough work for all who need it, ill health can prevent the worker seeking a job. All these events will mean no food for the family that evening. Families come to AIL for food supplies that they can cook at home. This provides a safety net for the family. AIL usually supplies about 200 families with food packs that can include: rice, beans, cooking oil, sugar, tea and bread.
