Who We Are

WE EMPOWER CHILDREN
Who we serve
We serve the children and families of Gurage zone province of Shoa, Ethiopia. The financial constraints experienced by these households hinder their capacity to afford items as fundamental as pens, pencils, notebooks, and other necessary materials. As a result, students face the harsh reality of attending classes without proper tools for learning, perpetuating a cycle of educational disadvantage that further exacerbates the existing economic challenges within these rural communities.

What needs funding
Our active project aims to provide school supplies, raw lunch materials, feminine hygiene products for girls, and uniforms. These recurring services are indispensable for the well-being and educational progress of the students.
Our non-recurring projects are extremely necessary for the neighboring communities and schools. These projects include the installation of power transmission transformers and water storage tanks with motor pumps to provision clean water and electricity. These basic necessities are often lacking in underserved communities. In addition, it’s important to extend the primary schools in these communities to grade 6 and some to grade 8, as well as to convert the Genet Mariam Junior High School into a high school. All of these efforts will contribute to the betterment of the community and provide opportunities for underprivileged children. To achieve these goals, our organization needs your support.
