Our Work in Iran

Overview

Iran is a country in Western Asia with a population of 83 million people. It’s considered one of the cradles of civilization and one of the most influential cultures in the world. Much of Iran consists of a central desert plateau, which is surrounded on all sides by mountain ranges. Due to its geographical location, the Iranian people are subject to many natural disasters like earthquakes, floods, and droughts.

Since 2008

Moms Against Poverty has been serving impoverished children in various provinces in Iran since 2010. Our programs include supporting, renovating, equipping, and building schools, orphanages, and libraries. Additionally, we provide orphan care, healthcare, and disaster and humanitarian relief to children in need.

Since 2010, about 357,000 children have received food, shelter, education, and health care through our work in Iran. During this time, we’ve:

  • Constructed over 71 schools, 2 medical centers, 2 libraries, 1 orphanage, and 1 cultural and vocational training center.
  • Renovated and equipped 82 village schools, 30 libraries, and 30 orphanages and rehabilitation centers for special needs children.
