Eagle Eyes NGO Background:

Eagle Club

Twenty years ago when I was a student in the Afghan city of Balkh and Kabul University I developed a youth club including classmates and friends. It was then named Eagle. We used to organise entertainment programmes for young people. At that time club membership was free for the poor. During that period I was convinced that I should help those who can not afford to pay the fee and young people and athletes coming to the capital from different provinces. They all needed help to benefit from activities the club would be running. Collected fees were going to contribute to that.

Decisive years
After coming to the UK, I realised that Afghan community living in the United Kingdom needed an organisation to help them in solving problems related to their life in exile.

I did professional training programmes on immigration legislation, financial controls and management and housing, health, issues. I graduated as a social worker. I was fully equipped to set up an organisation aiming at assisting helpless Afghans and others.

In 2000, with the help of friends, I established and got Eagle Eyes N.G.O officially registered. At first, despite financial hardship, I kept the organisation running for Five years, without receiving any external support. I worked on a voluntary basis, using my pocket money, and always learning about the UK working ethics.

I started the organisation from scratch, improved its structures and ways of working, advanced it through linking it to other organisations in the UK and elsewhere, and established and registered EENGO representations in twelve countries.
