The developing world stands plagued by insecurity and reckless abandonment.
Cycles of war, famine, poverty, disease and ill education have systematically kept less developed nations gasping for air and barely holding on to a rapidly advancing and unforgiving world.
Although the issues facing such nations are numerous and multi dimensional Omeid International believes that the core issues hindering development may be addressed and diagnosed from the ground up, and that is through the children of these struggling nations.
Omeid International plans to remove orphaned and destitute children from a state of anguish, isolation and persecution toward a future of hope, opportunity and justice inherent to our most primitive human rights.
By providing these children with the fundamental necessities for development; safe housing, education, health and nutrition, we will begin to build their confidence and life skills necessary to survive in their perspective societies.

"Afghans display pride in their religion, country, ancestry, and above all, their independence. Like other highlanders, Afghans are regarded with mingled apprehension and condescension, for their high regard for personal honor, for their clan loyalty and for their readiness to carry and use arms to settle disputes. As clan warfare and internecine feuding has been one of their chief occupations since time immemorial, this individualistic trait has made it difficult for foreign invaders to hold the region."

Omeid International is a 501 c3 tax exempt, non-profit public charity that exists to remove some of the more than 2 million orphans off the streets of Afghanistan and into a stable, healthy environment where education and hope may replace the void left behind from nearly 3 decades of war.
