Afghan Connections Newsletter Available

Dear RPCVs and FoAs Salaam,

I am pleased to announce the completion of the next edition of Afghan Connections the official newsletter of the Friends of Afghanistan. Kudos to AC Editor Dianne Holley for her dedication and hard work. Dianne is ably assisted by Jessie Schilling who will oversee the printing and mailing of our FoA newsletter. As always please send Dianne, Terry Dougherty, our ever vigilant Webmaster or me any information, updates and/or personal anecdotes about Afghanistan that could help serve the good of the order and keep us better connected to events in our former host country.

This is also a great time to send us any updates about RPCVs or other FoAs who are not official members of our organization and bring them into the fold. Please send any leads regarding new members to Jessie at the email address below. Your active participation and regular communication will help us determine how we can best serve your interests and will assist us in tailoring our communication to meet the information needs of the FoA membership. Send your ideas and suggestions to us at the following email addresses:
