Help Sarah raise money

For participating in Hike for Her 2025

My Story…

Steve and I are so grateful that Shokria is safe and in college.   And because of her, we cannot forget the countless other young women of Afghanistan - bright, curious, and ambitious - who live under Taliban rule.   

I believe in Ascend's work. Ascend is on the ground in Kabul, working with young women every day and providing a slender lifeline of hope. These young women are brilliant, determined, and facing almost unfathomable odds in their quest for education. We can help. Here in the US, we enjoy so much freedom and wealth. Even small gifts have a significant impact. By providing a few hours of internet access or bus fare to the Ascend Center, your contribution will directly support young women suffering under one of the world's most repressive regimes.

Donate to help Sarah raise money for Hike for Her 2025’s fundraising campaign.
