The Mission
As this blog progresses, the focus will be on the mission and the people of Afghanistan. I continue to get a ton of questions (keep them coming!) about what we're doing exactly. To be quite frank, it's fluid. We will provide aid in various ways, but rest assured clean drinking water, excellent health care and education will certainly be priorities.
As I dive into books on Afghanistan's history and culture, I am amazed at the resiliency of the people impacted by years and years of civil conflict and being caught in the crosshairs of world conflict. Images of Kabul in the early 90's reveal complete devastation. The 2000's certainly brought more. The people of Afghanistan are determined to rebuild and make the region economically strong.
