About
Women for Afghan Women at UCLA is a chapter of the non-profit organization Women for Afghan Women. WAW is a non-political organization which aims to protect women and children within Afghanistan by providing humanitarian aid and support. The purpose of our club is to be able to bring awareness to the students at UCLA, and support the women in Afghanistan through our events, fundraisers, and panels. As a chapter of WAW, all our proceeds from fundraising, events, or club collaborations will go straight to WAW(we will keep a quarter of our fundraising proceeds in order to be able to fund more events). Our events, discussions, and outreach aim to connect UCLA students with opportunities to make an impact by using our privilege as students. We aim to protect and promote the rights of women in Afghanistan by advocating and spreading their rights to education and freedom.
The club's own words, from UCLA's directory (2025).
