Wonderschool Opens Doors to Afghan Refugees

We are in a moment of crisis. As you read this, tens of thousands of people are fleeing Afghanistan. They are spreading across the world, sitting on planes, walking hundreds of miles, looking for a safe place to stay. We do not know what the future holds but we know we must act immediately, which is why we are proud to offer the Wonderschool platform free of charge to Afghan refugees.

“In response to the humanitarian crisis caused by the displacement of Afghan refugees, Wonderschool is committed to providing essential services to create jobs and ensure long-term stability,” says Wonderschool CEO Chris Bennett. “It is our responsibility to support resettled families as they rebuild their lives and communities.”

In addition to waiving fees for the platform, we will provide all applicants with a turnkey website to advertise their child care program, $300 to advertise their business on Yelp, and support for new partners to launch their program live in as little as two months. Afghan applicants will join an expedited onboarding process led by a dedicated Wonderschool onboarder. We will also offer support in both English and Pashto throughout the entirety of the onboarding process to ensure all refugees are able to earn income as quickly as possible.

Afghan applicants will have access to Wonderschool’s entire suite of services, including:

  • Turnkey websites so families can find, tour, and enroll in programs
  • Tour, enrollment and waitlist management
  • Parent communications, online billing and expense tracking
  • A community of like-minded professionals from all walks of life willing to offer support
