End of year Report

1[st] Jan. 2023 to 31[st] Dec. 2023

The Green Village Each one of us can make a difference. Together we can make a change.

Chairperson’s Message

As we share The Green Village’s third end-of-year report, we do so at a time of great challenges. Afghanistan continues to face severe economic hardship. Internation aid has decreased deepening the humanitarian crisis. Around two thirds of the population requires urgent assistance, with millions experiencing food insecurity.

The Taliban takeover has resulted in a reduction in essential services. The bans on women working and receiving education have had devastating effects, particularly for households led by women. We at the Green Village, have remained steadfast in our mission, working to support vulnerable families and orphans across Afghanistan.

None of this would be possible without the generosity of our donors. We want to express our heartfelt gratitude to all our donors and partners for their support. Together, we have been able to provide life saving support to vulnerable families, widows, and orphans.

Let us continue our missions to fight poverty, providing hope and support to those that need it most.

The trustees and volunteers receive no remuneration, payments, or benefits from the charity . We have a 100% donation policy. Short of bank and transfer fees which is an unavoidable cost, the entire donations are used to support families. Additionally, the charity will be claiming gift aid, which will more than offset the bank fees.
