“The children can’t stop smiling, they’ve already started planning a football tournament for when the new playground is built. The teachers cheer as fresh coats of paint brighten their classrooms, and girls whisper excitedly about finally having clean drinking water at school. ‘Now we can focus on learning,’ one student says, holding up her notebook with pride. Thanks to Compassionate Afghanistan’s support, hope is growing here every day.”
