Central Asia Institute
If you doubt the effectiveness of this organization, read the book Three Cups of Tea (purchase it through the Amazon link at www.threecupsoftea.com and they will get over $1/book purchased, plus 7% on anything else you buy through that link) That $1 will educate a girl at a CAI school for one month. The website also says that their program expenses lately have been affected by Mortenson’s travel schedule, promoting the book. This man and his organization are amazing.
The schools are in Pakistan and Afghanistan, and without the religious elements being taught, the kids that go to these schools will have a better comprehension of the world and acceptance of the differences that occur within that world.
