Founders, questions and answers
Why did I decide to be one of the CNHHAO founders?
When I grew up in the farthest as well as the poorest part of the world and I started my education there, poverty was in its highest level. Therefore, I began to think about how I could show these problems to the world and be a true servant of our poor community.
So, I decided to be one of the founders of this institute
Asadullah
When I was a teenager and went to university, there were a large number of girls from all over my country but, we were 4 or 5 Students from Wakhan this was not acceptable for me, afterword I start thinking then I find out that I could help our people with this project.
Shafiqa
I have completed my education in the field of health and fitness, and I have studied health restrictions in the society, the result was very painful, to save these cases, that’s why I became one of the founders of the institute.
Ghulam Sakhi
What talents and what experience I can bring to people of Wakhan in need of help?
Working for people who are below the poverty line, it requires kindness, especially compassion, and sympathy. In my opinion for a backward country attracting help through donors is a way finding way to get rid of poverty and education.
Asadullah
I am sure that I can find educational projects for remote villages, and I am sure to implement that. I will be a model at serving mountain women and sending rural girls to universities.
Shafiqa
To save the poor people I will begin from informing, I will begin to recognize the problems and show the ways to get rid of them through simple ways, and I will learn how to take vitamins for them from nature.
Ghulam Sakhi
What is the first project I will work on? What will I do for this first project?
Our first project is to build a school at the beginning of Rowrung. I will work on implementing voluntarily as well as I will take this responsibility. I will work to provide water and other necessities. Maintaining and looking after this project is my plan.
Asadullah
The first project of this institute is the building of the Rowrung primary school, and I am working on it with great determination and diligence. During the implementation of this project, I will work on the ideas of Rorong’s girls, I promise I will prepare them for education.
Shafiqa
Our first project is the construction of the Rowrung elementary school, which we will be building in general with the cooperation of local people and financial donors. I am proud to work on the project. The beautiful children of this region will be the hope of this land, and I will conduct health workshops in this region, explain the information about dangerous diseases, and teach them simple ways to prevent them.

CNHHAO extra expertises
Although they are, as of today, not involved in the CNHHAO start-up and in its fieldwork, some profesional people expressed their concern for the population of Wakhan. They decided to join the NGO as parts of its organisation as required per Afghan law. They are members of its board of directors and/or executive committee. During the actual activity period they might bring some punctual help. They might, later, join as more permanent actors if they can get a salary for these tasks.
