Global Shout on ABC News 7
Arlington, Virginia
Global Shout was featured on ABC 7 with Founder and Executive Director, Ali Karim, along with two of our refugees turned volunteers, Said and Khalid
After 7 months of tireless effort from all of our volunteers, Global Shout was featured today on ABC 7. Founder and Executive Director, Ali Karim, along with two of our refugees turned volunteers, Said and Khalid, were interviewed by 7 on your side’s Victoria Sanchez. Topics ranged from the refugee’s stories of narrowly escaping the grips of the Taliban, to Ali serving as a physician in the Afghan refugee rescue flights in fall 2021, and finally to all of our team’s efforts settling over 150 families in Northern Virginia. Ali even revealed Global Shout’s plans for a pivot to serve Ukrainian refugees in the near future alongside our new Afghan neighbors. We would like to extend a thank you to Victoria and the ABC 7 team for this great opportunity to discuss our cause and the crisis at large.

About Us
Global Shout is a U.S. based 501(c)3 tax-exempt (EIN#: 85-2382286) non-profit organization originally founded by students at Georgetown University in 2005 as Global S.H.O.U.T. (Students Helping Orphans in Underprivileged Territories). After an early focus strictly on the education and care of orphaned children in third world nations, the organization underwent a gradual shift in scope of humanitarian work, expanding beyond the university and dropping the acronym, with a full rebranding in 2019-20, now operating projects internationally of varying type and purpose.
