AHA Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization committed to preserving, protecting, and promoting Liberal freedoms and ideals.
We educate and legislate those ideas that have allowed the modern world to progress. We defend individual rights and freedoms and fight for a world free from illiberalism and oppressive practices, including female genital mutilation, honor violence, child and forced marriage, and the suppression of free speech and inquiry. We fight against Islamism and its manifestations, including antisemitism.
We stand for universal human rights and believe that Liberal values and ideals apply to and protect everyone. We champion a world defined by liberty for all.
Ayaan Hirsi Ali established AHA Foundation to put the ideas she writes and speaks about into practice.

MEET OUR FOUNDERWhy Support AHA Foundation
The work of AHA Foundation is more relevant and critical than ever. In the U.S. and across the world, Western freedoms and ideals are under threat. From the harm caused by oppressive traditions like female genital mutilation (FGM) and child marriage, the authoritarianism of illiberal ideologies, and Islamist violence, the foundations of our society are rupturing, while many stand by silently as they watch our hard-won freedoms slipping away.
AHA Foundation refuses to remain silent. We have over 15 years of expertise and a proven track record in protecting women’s rights, defending free speech, and exposing Islamist extremism. We are the national leader in tackling FGM.
As a non-partisan organization, we believe that these fights can be won only when we stand together, regardless of our political affiliations. By standing with us, you support a vision of a world where universal human rights reign supreme over tyranny, tribalism, and oppression of all kinds.

I don’t see how anyone who believes in the rule of law and women's rights could do anything other than support efforts to end female genital mutilation, forced marriage, and honor killings - practices that have no place in the 21st century.”
Eric Schmidt
AHA Foundation Supporter and Former CEO and Executive Chairman of GoogleFree societies are societies in motion, and with motion comes friction. Free people strike sparks, and those sparks are the best evidence of freedom’s existence. Totalitarian societies seek to replace the many truths of freedom by the one truth of power, be it secular or religious; to halt the motion of society, to snuff out its spark. Unfreedom’s primary purpose is invariably to shackle the mind.”
