Our motivation to join the catalyst is to help empower Afghan women, enabling them to overcome challenges such as poverty and hunger and to support their families and communities. By providing them with the necessary resources and skills, we can contribute to their economic, social, and political stability, and help rebuild Afghanistan.

Herat-Afghanistan

This is Zabiullah Hamidi, my goal in life is to be useful to others, for me that is the ultimate success. I study to become useful, to develop skills that others need. I love freedom and I believe in human rights; I believe that every single person should be educated and should learn. In my country my sisters and my friends are not allowed to learn so I think living in such place will ruin my future.
