At Salam Cafe, our journey began with a singular mission - to be a haven for street-working children in Kabul who had nowhere else to turn. Beyond a brick and mortar shelter, we are dedicated to making a profound and lasting impact in the lives of these children through a holistic strategy.

By understanding the multifaceted challenges these children face, our program is designed to address their physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual needs. Hygiene is not just a luxury but a fundamental right, and our shower program ensures that every child has access to this basic necessity. A dedicated head physician conducts weekly wellness checks, extending the care to encompass the entire family to include siblings and parents.

Our approach doesn’t end with immediate needs; we aim for sustainable transformation. As a child progresses and is ready to graduate from Salam Cafe, we extend support to their parents by providing a small business. This initiative is designed to break the cycle of poverty, offering families a chance to build a better future.

We invite you to join hands with us in this meaningful journey. Your participation can make a significant difference in alleviating the hardships faced by children working on the streets. Whether you become a child sponsor or donate to one of our cafes worldwide, your contribution will play a vital role in nurturing hope and creating a brighter future for these resilient children.

At Salam Cafe, we believe in the transformative power of compassion and the collective effort to bring positive change. Join our mission and rewrite the narrative, where every child finds refuge, support, and the opportunity for a better tomorrow.
