We are a non-profitable UK based organisation providing support to children and vulnerable women and girls in Afghanistan
Helping Orphans was established and is led by Hanan Habibzai, with its headquarters in the UK. The organisation is registered in the UK and Afghanistan. A country director heads our operations team in Kabul, and the operational team is all Afghan nationals. This real strength enables partnership working with the local authorities and access to vulnerable communities. We currently work in across Afghanistan, a country with considerable and ever-increasing levels of vulnerability. Along with the food security programme, our Resilience and Sustainable Livelihoods Programme provides new skills and small businesses to vulnerable people so they can gain their own source of income.
Helping Orphans stands as a beacon of hope, a registered charity in the UK and an international NGO in Afghanistan. Hanan’s vision sparked a mission to make a lasting impact on the lives of orphans and vulnerable individuals.
From its inception, Helping Orphans has been a steadfast ally to those in need. The charity’s efforts extend beyond emergency responses, providing essential support such as food packs, medicines, shelters, clean water, and clothing. This commitment is not just about addressing immediate crises but is rooted in a sustained dedication to alleviating poverty and hunger in the long term.
One of the cornerstones of Helping Orphans’ work lies in providing sustainable development support. The organization empowers orphans and vulnerable teenagers with life-changing skills through a comprehensive 6-month vocational program. This initiative equips them with the tools they need to build a brighter future for themselves.
Beyond skill development, Helping Orphans goes the extra mile by assisting program graduates in finding employment opportunities. This holistic approach ensures that the impact of the charity’s work extends well beyond the duration of the training, fostering lasting change in the lives of those it touches.
Since its establishment in 2016, Helping Orphans has been a catalyst for transformation, changing thousands of lives for the better. The ripple effect of their efforts continues to create a positive wave of change, exemplifying the organisation’s commitment to making a meaningful and enduring difference in the world.
