In the surkhroad
province
of Afghanistan
which is located 16 Kilometers east of the city of
Jalalabad
in the most war torn
province
of Afghanistan,
the Nengrahar. Hope of Mother President Mina Wali has utilized
her own main asset being land and donating a great portion of
it with our great
support from AMI (Attencia Medica International) to build the
first ever Private school in the heart of the province to educate
400 students a year. 200 young men and 200 young women. The goal of
this project is to bring attention to the youth and guidance for
building leaders. This Educational Academy will emphasize on presenting the
youth with western and eastern education systems that will cover
basics such as English, Math, Sciences, World history, Geography,
and Physical Education. Hope of Mother will emphasize on presenting
the students with extra curricular activities such as after school
sports programs, Islamic study groups,
vocational training in Agri-Business due to the area being
and Agricultural Powerhouse for the region.
Afghan Womens Boxing
Federation
(AWBF)
This country wide mission
was a tough route to establish, Hope of Mother Vice President Tareq
S. Azim took charge and presented the Olympic commission with a
proposal reasoning what benefit this goal will have for the country
and the world. The clearance of this program took place and went
into effect in Feburary of 2007. The vision of this program is as
follows.
This story ends in 2012 at the Olympic Games in
London. If time travel were a reality in
today’s world, you could spoil the ending for yourself right now and
be instantly transported to the ringside of a women’s boxing match.
You’d find a frenzied room, a shrill announcer, and, in one corner,
the very first female boxer to represent Afghanistan in the Olympics.
Witnessing this moment would be witnessing
triumph. It would mean that Afghani women were one step closer to
making even the most improbable dreams come true. The women of
Afghanistan
should have the opportunity to become CEOs, heads of departments,
community leaders—whatever they desire to be. Boxing can be a
doorway to this bold social change.
How we did it the first time.
This story started in 2006, when we tapped the
waters of cultural change through another sport, soccer. Giving
Afghan women the chance to compete in a sport was the first step.
Receiving the blessing from a society rooted in strict traditional
female roles was a watershed event. It would have been unimaginable
even just a few years ago. On the very grounds that these matches
took place were where executions and many other horrible scenes once
happened
Against all odds, the soccer program was a
success on multiple fronts.
Finally, the people of Afghanistan—whether
supporters, skeptics or outspoken critics—had seen what their women
were capable of doing. The seed had been planted.
Giving Afghani women a taste of freedom was
more than rewarding; it was inspiring. Finally, we had discovered a
way to break through harsh cultural constraints. We know now that
sports is our avenue for social change, and we are ready to maximize
the program’s exposure through media, corporate support, and, most
importantly, fans.
Enter women’s boxing. Sure, it sounds crazy.
Afghan women, traditionally seen in subservient and passive roles,
are going to put on boxing gloves? Crossing this line doesn’t seem
so intimidating after the barriers broken via the soccer program. We
believe the momentum we’ve created is just the beginning of a long
history of liberation for the women of Afghanistan.
Perhaps one day an Afghani woman can hold an elected office.
How
we’re going to do it again.
The first Women’s Boxing Federation in Afghanistan is
being formed now. Fairtex, the biggest name in boxing, Mhuay Thai,
and Mixed Martial Arts has donated the resources to build an Olympic
training gym, including equipment, trainers, and accommodations. 150
women have signed on and several more will be recruited
before the team is complete.
Construction on the gym begins in early 2008.
Training starts July 2008. We’re looking forward to the journey. And
support to help Build More training Facilities through out the
country.
Mina Wali Health Clinic (Medical
Clinic)
In the most war torn Region of Afghanistan lays a population
of 500,000 thousand local civilians. The Eastern region of Afghanistan has been targeted by
Hope of Mother Professionals that the Kunar Province Seek immediate
Medical Attention. The
Kunar
Province has 14 districts
that make up the large population presented above. In the
surrounding area of a 7 hour radius there is a shortage in medical
awareness and attention causing several at birth mortality rates to
raise month to month, disease, infection, and mental sickness with
no available trace in reason for sickness.
Our
goal-
Develop an
institution that would cater to the region in size and patient
capacity at higher volumes. We are looking to attract medical
professionals, medical staffs, and specialists to help end the
mortality rates in the nengahar province of Kunar.
