Sela Foundation

nitially, Sela Foundation’s focus was to help needy and poor families, internal displaced people (IDPs) and returnees by providing food aid, clothing and free medical care. We work for the poor who live in severe and desperate conditions in object poverty and have no access to basics needs of life such as food, shelter, medical care and education. We identify and design programs that address wide range of issues affecting social well-being of people throughout the country. Sela Foundation is working to change the lives of thousands of poor people through addressing their needs, delivering relief aid directly into the hands of the poor throughout Afghanistan and to implement programs designed to encourage self sufficiency. However, in 2009 and onwards, the Foundation shifted its priorities from providing food aid to the larger picture; child development, youth mobilizations and promoting education through helping girls and boys get enrolled in to schools. Sela Foundation designs and implements projects that empower poor communities to earn through learning a profession and be able to support their families, and enable them to send their children to school. We also directly support families to send their children to school
