Raising funds to support refugees fleeing from Afghanistan due to the Taliban takeover.

Story

For the past 20 years, Afghanistan has been suffering with civilians paying the consequences of international and local politics. The result - countless Afghan civilian lives lost and the internal displacement of nearly 4 million Afghans. Now, with the US's abrupt withdrawal and Taliban takeover, the country has been left completely fragile. We have all seen the shocking images from inside the country of thousands fleeing the country in fear of what will happen next and to find safety elsewhere. Many of the families will be making their way into northern areas of Pakistan where historically Afghan refugees have already sought safety. In April of this year, we were able to support refugees in the Jalbai village in the Swabi district of Northern Pakistan, KPK. We are now heading back there and to the Bajaur district where we will be providing food rations and immediate clothing and financial aid to Afghani refugees arriving across the border.

About the charity

Road To Freedom

RCN 1169584
Road to Freedom is a non-profit charity that aims to provide refugees fleeing war-torn countries with immediate aid, which includes food, clothing and hygiene kits. Working with official NGO’s and charities on the ground at borders and refugee camps, we personally hand aid to those men, women and children in desperate need. Road to Freedom have developed a professional team of volunteers who extensively fund raise each month ahead of their journey to a different location in crisis. Each volunteer effectively distributes aid in a professional and humane manner alongside NGO’s and other on-site charities. Alongside our valuable work on the ground, we consistently strive to raise awareness in the international worlds about the tragic effects of the continuing vulnerability of the refugees affected by war.
