I and the person who looks after an orphan will be in Paradise like this,” putting his index and middle fingers together. (Hadith)

Hayat Orphanage in Afghanistan

Hayat Orphanage in Afghanistan was established in March 2013 in the center of Laghman Province. Since then it is a place of hope for more than 100 orphan children. Hayat Orphanage is committed with the mission to provide the orphans with quality education services, lodging, food, clothes, medication, schoolbooks, shoes, involving them in sports and much more. In addition, particularly the main focus of Hayat Orphanage is to protect the vulnerable orphan children from abuse and provide a mainstream education that enable them to support their families when they grow up.

However, to accomplish the quality education services, the orphans are admitted to the local private schools. After school hours they receive tuition in Math, English and Computer skills. Moreover, they have a fun-filled schedule incorporating playing cricket and football, reading time and academic trips.

Future objectives of the orphans in Afghanistan

At Hayat Orphanage, we have developed good talents who are now aiming to continue their higher education studies abroad. They have high objectives that cannot be achieved in Afghanistan. They need our help and support to climb the success in their lives. Sponsor an orphan in Afghanistan and help them build their future.
