The Afghan American Alliance of Georgia is a 501(c)(3) organization founded by concerned Georgians to support the many Afghan families starting a new life in our community.

After decades in Afghanistan, US troops began a full withdrawal in 2021. Taliban forces immediately began a military offensive, culminating in the capture of the Afghan capital, Kabul, on August 15. The US completed its withdrawal on August 30, upon which the Taliban claimed victory. In those final days of August, thousands of Afghans who had assisted US troops scrambled to escape the Taliban's reprisals. Despite the challenges they faced, these brave individuals had to leave behind their possessions, careers, bank accounts, and loved ones. They are now embarking on a new journey, full of hope and resilience, eager to rebuild their lives and embrace the opportunities for a brighter future here, as they chase the American Dream.
