Alaha with WP medal
On August 23rd, 2011, World Poetry International, The University of Mary Washington in Virginia along with the Afghan Consulate joined together in a very special celebration to present the treasured Afghan youth poet, Alaha Ahrar with a World Poetry Youth Ambassador Medallion. Alaha was to receive the award at our First World Poetry International Festival in May but due to visa problems was unable to attend. We would like to thank the University of Mary Washington and the Afghan Embassy for creating the award celebration.

It was a beautiful ceremony, Alaha, and I am very happy that I was able to be there in Fredericksburg with so many others who love you. I’m so proud of you, always!
Felt so hopeless looking for answers to my questions…until now.
Hey Alaha!
The ceremony was fantastic. I watched the video there were many guests, the pictures show only a part of it.
I loved your speech and the way you recited your poem in your native language,
very beautiful and touching.
YOU should be very Proud of your achievements with your triple major at UMW and your social works and public speakings.
You rock!
Hey Alaha!
Are all Afghan people as beautiful, nice, caring, loving and fun to be around as you are?
Or you are an exception for the world.
Proud of you my friend and I am happy that we are friends.
Alaha Ahrar is an unique young, talented and smart afghan girl .there is no doubt about her. most of afghans are very generous i can say 99.9 % of our people are nice,kind and lovable . hospitality is very unique way of living among us . afghans are very faithful people on the face of the earth, give them love , respect and help , they will give you 10 times as much. in some point they will sacrifice them self to you . they are not self fish people ,they always do more for others then for them self .afghans have very strong pride . pride would not allow them to give up , so if you hurt them in any ways ,they will respond . they don’t take the pain easy , it gets deeper and deeper in their heart and mind ,no matter how long it takes they will get revenge 100 years from now on . this goes on from generations to generations .
with regards.
Alaha I love you so much. You are the most amazing friend I have Masha’llah. Ishall’ah God will plus you where ever you go and I’m sure that you can make it to the best because I also know that you are a good example that shows the world what Afghanistan girls can do. God plus you.
Love you sweaty <3
