The Sweater Project is a non-for-profit initiative generating income for Afghan women and families and warmth to Afghanistan's poorest children. Each $25 sweater you buy helps to support women at home and clothe a destitute child. We estimate each sweater helps to support 25 people. Working with a local NGO partner of many years' standing, we buy yarn from Afghan merchants and shopkeepers and pay women and girls to knit sweaters at home for destitute children. Many are living in camps for internally displaced persons in Afghanistan. Visit our site to help support Afghanistan's women and children.
