The Raindrops organization is in Connecticut, but their team is working in Afghanistan to do the work! They are on the ground in Afghanistan helping!

The earth shook in eastern Afghanistan on September 1, leaving heartbreak in its wake. Homes, villages, and lives have been lost. Families are mourning while survivors search for shelter and safety, once again facing unimaginable hardship.

For the Afghan people, this tragedy is not an isolated event! It comes amid years of displacement, drought, and a deep humanitarian crisis. Yet in the face of loss, we also see resilience: communities coming together, neighbors digging through rubble, families sharing what little they have.

At Elena’s Light, our roots are in Afghanistan. Shared here is the relief effort by our partner, Raindrops. They are on the ground doing the hard work. And we are supporting this project. We grieve with our people and hold them in our hearts. We ask our community here to join us in solidarity through prayers, by raising awareness, and by supporting trusted organizations that are providing urgent aid on the ground.

When Afghanistan suffers, we all feel the tremors. Let us not look away.
