Her journey to the competition was nothing short of inspiring, as she took on the role of driver and captain, showcasing the resilience and brilliance of Afghan girls. We couldn't be prouder of her remarkable efforts.

"We need more girl activists. We need to give them the platforms, the tools, the support. We also need to trust in their leadership. We need to fund their work... and allow them to create the world they see for themselves." — @Malala

“At this point in Kabul, even a cat has more freedoms than a woman, and a squirrel has more rights than a girl.” At UNHQ, Meryl Streep joined @antonioguterres in urging the global community to defend the rights of women and girls in Afghanistan. The time for action is now.#unga78

For years, I witnessed the efforts of girls who fought against the obstacles of societal taboos and false traditions. We were on the verge of paving a path toward the awakening of minds, and then, everything changed. - Yalda Aminy, former DCF student & Afghan Robotics Team member

Former robotics team member @FlorencePouya begins her first day as an MIT student. We wish you well on this exciting new chapter!

[DigitalCitizenfund @DCitizenfund]

Afghan girls will never stop learning because knowledge is their power, resilience is their strength, and education is their path to a brighter future.
