We are honoured to announce that founder Mahboba Rawi, and her son Nawid (Sourosh) Cina won the prestigious Human Rights Medal on December 9th, 2022 . ⁣ ⁣ Mahboba and Nawid have worked with determination to promote the rights of women and children, and to support people fleeing the Taliban in Afghanistan , especially those who are within our communities. Mahboba said she was honoured to receive the award alongside her son, “What drives me to do the work that I do is the suffering of Afghan women.⁣” ⁣ “I dream for Afghan women to be free and choose what they want to do, to go out without permission, to run their life the way they want, to work equally, to study, go for further education.”⁣ ⁣ Congratulations to Mahboba and Nawid ! We are deeply proud and inspired by your work . #humanrightsaward⁣

Nawid (Sourosh) Cina is a human rights advocate with a dedicated commitment to international development and gender equality. ⁣ ⁣ Following her personal tragedy, Mahboba dedicated her life to helping others through Mahboba’s Promise. Together with her son, they have worked tirelessly to look after Afghanistan’s vulnerable orphans, establish schools, fund health care services, and create vocational programs to enable the vulnerable to be self-sufficient. ⁣ ⁣ When the urgent need arose recently, they put their lives aside, working around the clock to facilitate the resettlement of hundreds of people to Australia. ⁣ ⁣ Nawid pivoted full time back to Mahboba’s Promise in a General Manager capacity following the post-withdrawal crisis. He guided the charity’s response on the ground, especially in relation to continued work for displaced peoples, and led operations locally. In this time, Mahboba’s Promise saw significant growth and public exposure, within 7 weeks.⁣ ⁣ Nawid also led evacuation efforts in Afghanistan, resulting in 17 orphans and staff evacuated to Australia in a land journey and has led to the evacuation and settlement of over 150 people. ⁣ #humanrightsaward⁣

The founder of Mahboba’s Promise, Mahboba Rawi, has devoted her life for the last 20 years to providing food, clothing, education and a home to some of Afghanistan’s most vulnerable widows and orphans. ⁣ Many of the children Mahboba’s Promise sponsors have now grown into adults who put their time and effort into the organisation, wanting to help others like themselves.⁣ ⁣ Mahboba’s story has been well-documented over the years, and her determination and compassion for the children of her country, despite countless setbacks, has never wavered. ⁣ ⁣ “ I took that strain, pain and sorrow and made it a strength for me, to save other children from dying, hunger, diseases and starvation. I promised to myself that I am going to save the children and dedicate my life to it , and that is why I established my organisation, called Mahboba’s Promise, and that is my promise to give all my life for it, to save children”. - Mahboba Rawi⁣ ⁣ ⁣ She thanks you all for your donations and continued support ❤️⁣ ⁣ #Afghanistan #Australia #ngo #MahbobasPromise #afghanistan #donate #afghanistancrisis #kabul #orphans #widows #afghanlivesmatter⁣
