OUR MISSION
To empower the most disadvantaged communities in Ethiopia and neighbouring countries to end child poverty
HOW WE WORK
Our approach is based on a simple principle.
Members of the poor communities themselves are the people with the insights, determination, perseverance – and responsibility – to care for their own children and to improve their own situations.
​
We are:
​
​
Child-centred
We believe that children should be cared for in their own community
Community-based
Our projects are planned, managed and staffed by local people
Integrated
We respond to all the needs of children within their community
