CHI – Afghanistan Project Support

February 13, 2008

Onbehalf of the group, Ken S. looked into the Afghan Learning Centers for Women and Children as a project that we would like to support. Creating Hope International of Dearborn, MI, the project sponsor, revealed that the administration costs of about 10%, half of which is attributed to the Afghan Institute of Learning, indicate a lean operation. Ken was satisfied with the bona fides of CHI and its program effectiveness. (He also discovered the director of CHI is a RPCV who served four years in Afghanistan in the late 1960’s.) Kathleen R. moved that the agreed sum of $500, as discussed in December, be sent to CHI. Carolyn C. seconded the motion which was unanimously approved.
