The American and Coalition forces are organized by sections or workgroups. We have a program available so that a workgroup or section can adopt a village to take under their wings and provide humanitarian assistance. My section, civil affairs, has selected the village of Charachi. The village has a population of approximately 500 villagers. Here are some pictures from our trip to the village as well as at the village. We visit this village twice a month and pass out clothes, food and toys. If you would like to donate to this village or some other place in Afghanistan just shoot me an email and perhaps we can work together.
