About The Children of War
Our mission is one of education and empowerment. We focus on providing orphaned children primary education, a nutritious diet, and valuable job skills through the three schools we operate in the city of Kabul and district of Paghman within Afghanistan. The Children of War schools follow the curriculum as directed by the Afghan Ministry of Education. Our students study Math, English, Dari and Pashto (official national languages), Science, National and World History, and Geography. Carpentry, sewing, and computer skills are also taught at the respective schools where we have resources. In addition, all students take drawing and calligraphy as part of their arts studies. http://www.thechildrenofwar.org/
Safe Harbor Resources is a new (August 2002) nonprofit corporation for safer selection of children's workers. Its goal is to thwart undetectable sexual predators who infiltrate youth and children's programs, and do so without naming or shaming anyone. Only 3% of abusers ever get caught. The rest are known to harm up to a hundred children each. Thwarting one hundred such serial predators protects many thousands of children. more info
