Risking Her Life to Play Sports in Afghanistan

🧡 Thank you so much for your contributions! We have collected $10,000 for the Bamyan Ski Club and Nazima 🧡
Nazima Khairzad is a talented athlete from Afghanistan: a country where, if you happen to be born as a girl, you're expected to stay home, and NOT do sports. But Nazima is defying tradition and threats, to follow her greatest passions in life: skiing, hiking, running, and doing sports. Her extraordinary story inspired me to travel to Afghanistan in the first place, and I'm proud to share it with you all.
