What is a safe way to donate to people in Afghanistan?

Reviewed by Famidi editorial team
Direct answer

Use a verified organization with a clear legal identity, official payment domain, defined programs, current policies, and evidence showing how support is delivered or built.

What this means in practice

Verify the organization independently instead of relying on a forwarded link or social-media badge.

Read what the donation supports, what can change in the field, and how you will receive a record.

Never send passwords, card details, or authentication codes through direct messages or email.

A responsible route from donor to field work

Famidi receives support through its verified U.S. charity and works through trusted local coordinators who assess needs, purchase or contract locally when practical, complete the work, and return records.

Humanitarian activity and sanctions compliance are specialized areas. Do not treat a general explainer as legal authorization for a particular transfer, counterparty, or transaction; use current U.S. Treasury guidance when that question applies.
