About the Organization

Grenzenlose Hilfe Kremsmünster is an Austrian non-profit association based in Kremsmünster, Upper Austria. The organization is dedicated to humanitarian aid, especially for vulnerable groups in crisis regions, most notably Afghanistan. Their key focus since 2021 has been supporting the rights and education of girls in Kabul.

The Kabul Project: Dr. Fawad Girls School

  • Background: Since June 2021, and in partnership with Dr. Ramin Sangin, the organization operates the officially registered Dr. Fawad Girls School in Kabul. Amid severe restrictions imposed by the Taliban, this school gives hope and education to around 500 children, mostly girls.
  • Girls-Focused: The majority of students are girls who have little to no access to education elsewhere.
  • Mother-Child Classes: Innovative programs where both mothers and children learn to read and write together, empowering two generations simultaneously.
  • Practical Skills: In addition to standard education, the school offers practical skills like sewing and handicrafts, laying the groundwork for future income and self-reliance.
  • Safe Environment: Small classes ensure learning happens in a protective and supportive atmosphere.
  • Local Staff: Classes are taught by dedicated local female teachers.
  • Impact: The project not only provides education but nurtures hope and new perspectives for entire families who otherwise have no options.

Our Mission

In the heart of Kabul, a privately run school is giving 500 girls access to education, taught by 6 dedicated female teachers. Officially registered, this school is a lifeline — but it's at risk of closing by August without support.
If you educate a man, you educate an individual. If you educate a woman, you educate a nation. — Dr. James Emmanuel Kwegyir Aggrey
With just €15, you can sponsor one girl's education for an entire month. The school operates on a modest €1,500/month budget — every single euro goes directly into the project. No overhead. No bureaucracy. Just real impact.

Why Your Support Matters & How to Help

  • Crisis Situation: The current educational environment for girls in Afghanistan is dire. After the Taliban takeover, many NGOs have withdrawn. The survival and operation of this school are now at greater risk than ever.
  • Immediate Threat: Due to lack of funding, the Dr. Fawad Girls School is on the verge of closing. Without new sponsors and donors, hundreds of girls will lose their only chance at education and a better future.
  • Cost: Only €15 per month is needed to sponsor a child.
  • Daily school attendance for a child
  • Local teaching by passionate female educators
  • School materials and a safe environment
  • Hope for families without alternatives

Media & Transparency

  • Coverage in regional Austrian media (Oberösterreichische Nachrichten, Tips, MeinBezirk) and national reports (ORF) underlines the urgent need and successful impact of their humanitarian work.

Summary

Grenzenlose Hilfe Kremsmünster is one of the few Austrian NGOs still active on the ground in Afghanistan, especially focused on girls' education and emergency aid for women. Their transparent and dedicated approach has changed lives but now urgently needs more supporters to keep hope alive for hundreds of girls.
