Kashmir Family Aid

We have planned 13 projects ranging from building school bathrooms and sponsoring children, to supporting clinics. Other projects include sponsoring girls' education, building a job center for young women to learn a trade, and funding a clinic that will provide basic services to men and women who must travel up to four hours for the nearest doctor - including for childbirth services. One of our main projects available for corporate sponsorship is to construct a building for orphans who currently study in tents because the 2005 earthquake destroyed their former building - crushing dozens of students. This school is 20 kilometers north of Muzaffarabad, Azad Kashmir, on the Nellum River. Teachers there make less than $60 a month and have not been paid for months. We also plan to build bathrooms (that, in one school, has 400 students to one toilet).
