Group Info Name: The International Pashtoon Society-IPS
Type: Organizations - Non-Profit Organizations
Description: The International Pashtoon Society was founded in an effort to unite the Pashtoon community locally and globally, and to one day link all international and local
Pasthoon organizations into ONE unit. Locally we hope to indulge members of our community into mentor programs, help to expand an existing Pashto School in Falls
Church, offer community service, and to organize and support fundraisers for the betterment of our community back home.
Our vision is to create a haven for the growing Pastho community here in the United States. Our Organization will help in assimilating the Pashtoon?s in this culture,
while still retaining theirs. Language is a way of expanding horizons and learning about one?s culture, as an effort to encourage reading, writing, and speaking skills we would like to continue to expand our efforts by offering free Pashto classes.
With the help of our community our organization would like to host events, whether it be educational, entertainment or just social gatherings to enlighten the youth about our rich culture and traditions.

UPDATE 04/25/08
As you all already know we have a FREE Pashto school in Falls Church, Virginia. That has been hosted and organized by a group called ?Afghan Meli Tolana? our mission these days is to expand the academy so it is readily available to anyone in the public. Unfortunately the space this school makes use of, will no longer be available to us.
However, everyone including, my dear friend Palwasha who teaches children at the school, are trying their utmost best to find a location as soon as possible so that their students don?t miss class. In the past when no location has been available these teachers have laid a blanket over a parking lot to continue teaching.
You all are probably wondering why this particular project is so important to us. Well its simply because, we want the Pashtoon children living in the west to be able to appreciate and retain their culture, and once they know how beautiful it is and how beautiful our people are and that they depend on our help for basic necessities, that are openly available to us here, such as education, good welfare, good medical care so forth.
And believe me these children here are one day going to be the one?s extend their support for the betterment of our community back home.
I am requesting, members of this group who live in the Metropolitan area to please inform us if anyone is willing to give these kids a class room space on a continuos basis.
