Our Purpose

We believe no child should go hungry, miss school, or be left behind due to tragedy or poverty. That’s why we focus on holistic, community-ce ntered care—addressing children's physical, emotional, educational, and spiritual needs.
We don’t just offer temporary aid. We walk alongside families and build futures—helping them grow stronger, more independent, and more hopeful every day.

Because Love Can Turn Grief Into Purpose.
Because Rediet, Bereket, and Yosef Would Have Wanted It That Way.

  4. Misgana Tessema

    Volunter

    I am Misagana Tessema, and I am one of the senior volunteers. I spend every Saturday with these little kids, facilitating a tutorial class where i teach crafts, specifically origami. i also provide life skills training for teenagers. During my time with them, I have learned how to be happy from spending time with the kids. The values i learn from them are greater that what i teach them.
