What do we do at Afghan Charity Week?

In 2019, university societies came together to launch Afghan Charity Week (ACW), driven by a shared commitment to give back to those in need in Afghanistan. As students, we aim to make a meaningful difference through collective action and compassion.

  • To establish a strong community among the Afghan student diaspora, creating a network of societies that will support and share resources with one another.
  • To nominate a registered charity annually, ensuring funds are collected and distributed responsibly on behalf of Afghan Charity Week, with complete impartiality.
  • To always remain inclusive and build sustainable proceeds to ensure longevity.
  • To encourage charitable work among Afghan university societies across the UK and internationally.

Afghan Charity Week Dinner

To wrap up our first successful Afghan Charity Week, all university societies united one last time to organise a memorable Afghan Charity Week dinner. An evening filled with traditional Afghan food and music followed by a series of lively auctions and pledges.

The ACW dinner managed to unite Afghans across London and the UK in support of causes and initiatives which aim to raise money and awareness for Afghanistan
