In September 2025, a series of devastating earthquakes struck Afghanistan’s south-eastern region, killing and wounding thousands. Many of those impacted –– particularly women and girls –– are facing displacement, extreme food insecurity, and lack of shelter. Despite this, humanitarian access remains limited and resources are scarce.
In response, MADRE activated our Feminist Emergency Disaster & Response Fund to meet urgent needs and resource our partners as first responders. Together, we are distributing the following to over 1,400 affected individuals:
Additionally, MADRE and our partners are organizing temporary learning spaces for girls whose clandestine schools were damaged by the earthquake, ensuring they can continue their education even in crisis.
Your generosity supports this life-saving work. Thank you for standing with Afghan women and girls!
