Afghanistan
Compass Charitable Support
We are a group of former Compass Integrated Security staff who have come together to support our past colleagues and their families in Afghanistan.
In August 2021 the Taliban seized power in Afghanistan and the lives of our former colleagues and their families changed for the worse. Since then the situation has gotten worse for everyone and in particular the women and girls.

But there's a problem
Right now in Afghanistan, teenage girls and women do not have access to education, employment and freedom of movement. An estimated 18.9 million Afghans - half the population - are experiencing acute food insecurity.
Here's what we're doing about it
As former staff of Compass Integrated Securities, we have re-grouped voluntarily to support some of the worst affected people we know and their families. The people we are supporting are experiencing acute food insecurity and their safety is at risk because they or their family members worked alongside us.
Mariam in Kabul
One of the women we are supporting is Mariam (name changed for personal safety) her husband was killed by the Taliban while working for us. Mariam had moved on with her life, had a job and supported her family until the day the Taliban seized power. She has been forced out of her job and can no longer support herself and her family. We have been supporting Mariam and others but now we are asking for your help too.

The donations go directly to the families for food and supplies. We appreciate all one-off donations and regular commitments whether large or small.
