About this Fundraiser

The Program

Help One Now will begin operating orphan prevention & family empowerment projects in Wolaita Sodo, Ethiopia. These projects will focus on education, health care, micro enterprise, social awareness, training and spiritual development in order to KEEP FAMILIES TOGETHER.

The Need  

There are many families on the brink of falling apart in Wolaita Sodo, which has been identified as a source city for many of the street kids in Hawassa and Addis Ababa. Our Help One Now Ethiopia Local Leader, Aschalew Abebe, has said that family empowerment in this area is a top priority.

Aschalew and his team in Wolaita have identified between 300 and 400 kids and families who are in desperate need help. On average, it will take about $75/month per child/family to give them the support they need, including basic health care, education, food, access to clean water, and agricultural or business training.


The Goal

This generous donation from the Legacy Collective will allow us to identify 100 families, enroll them in the family empowerment program, and keep this program rolling for a full year. Over the course of the next year, Help One Now will launch a child sponsorship program to sustain and expand this work over time!
