Donations to FFSA are not yet U.S. tax

preparer concerning tax questions.
For tax-deductible donations, we coordinate
with an organization in Kabul that has U.S.
501-c3 non-profit status.
Scholarship donations are made directly to
the appropriate educational institution in the
U.S.
Please contact us for more information
regarding donations.
Want to volunteer? We need help to copy edit English language versions of works by Afghan writers for publication on Kabulpress.org and other Afghan web sites. Original articles and researchers also welcome. This is a good chance to get published for a great cause.
