Ansar Orphanage
Ansar Orphanage, located in Gazergah Sharif, Herat, was established in 1384 [Islamic calendar]. This institution, one of the country's most renowned educational centers, was founded with the aim of serving society and the Islamic Ummah. With the support and cooperation of sincere, knowledgeable individuals from the Muhammadan school (ﷺ), the orphanage strives to provide spiritual education, religious knowledge, and a strong religious foundation, all while fostering Islamic culture and raising an informed and virtuous generation.
This significant educational center currently serves 1,500 students, both male and female, from grades 1 to 12. They are educated in two separate facilities by a team of 22 experienced and specialized male and female professors who teach both Islamic and contemporary sciences.
Since the primary mission of this institution is to care for orphans in the region, a significant portion of the students—approximately 40%—are orphans. Additionally, the orphanage currently provides for 300 male students in its residential program.
A remarkable and noteworthy aspect of Ansar Orphanage is that all facilities, classes, textbooks, and related costs are provided entirely free of charge to the orphans, with no fees required for any of these services.
