Akademos Society has signed a new Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Rahnaward-e-Noor High School (RHS) to extend and expand our Kids Off The Streets (KOTS) program in Ghor province of Afghanistan. The new agreement will support the existing 20 students within the program and add 8 new students, taking the number of students supported by Akademos Society to 28 in total.
