Dear Friends,
In June, AIL was able to use its stored goods to put together 150 food kits for needy families. Each kit included 8kg of rice, 3kg of oil, and 1kg of tomato paste.
AIL maintains close ties with the Department of Women's Affairs in Herat and in July the department and 4 NGOs, including AIL, distributed food aid. AIL was assigned 75 families all of them were headed by widows who has lost a son in the war. These families received 8kg of rice, 3 liters of oil and a can of tomato paste.
All the families were delighted to receive this help. “I am very happy to get this food to help my children not be hungry,“ said one mother.
AIL also distributes clothing and in June clothes were given out to both boys and girls of the orphanages in Herat. Residents of the Peer Herat Disabled Center also got clothing. In all 165 garments for females and 215 male garments were handed out.
