Malala Fund

Hello AFS Community,

I have an amazing opportunity for you all to help woman and children in the Middle East (and the surrounding areas) go to school!

The Malala Fund, partnered with Schoola, is an organization that helps girls complete 12 years of safe schooling and they need our help. They are asking us to fill a bag with clothing for toddlers, kids, and women. They appreciate things that are high-quality, well cared for, in new or like new condition, and freshly laundered and dry. 

What's appropriate? Baby clothes, dresses, jeans, skirts, tops, bottoms, handbags.

What's not appropriate? Sleepwear, undies, socks, infant clothing, items that are stretched/stained/faded/missing labels/homemade/altered/counterfeit/offensive. 

To donate an item (or items), drop them off in the box in the Upper School front lobby labelled "Items for the Malala Fund/Schoola." The box will be out until February 29.  If you have any questions, please feel free to email me and/or visit the above links for more information. 

Thanks for your help,
