Our mission
The Maihan Association of Charlotte is organized exclusively for cultural, charitable and educational purposes.

The organization raises funds through donations, community events, and lawful fundraising activities to support its programs and serve individuals and families in need, without providing private benefit to any individual.
Afghan families in the Carolinas
Our focus is on Afghan-origin families who have made Charlotte and the surrounding suburbs their home — from recent arrivals rebuilding after displacement, to long-established families sustaining and sharing their culture. We work to strengthen the ties that make our community whole.
