Families receiving drought aid in Wonji, Ethiopia, from Vulnerable Children Society
This summer, we worked with our fantastic partner Faya Orphanage to distribute food to impoverished families in Ethiopia.
These families are extremely vulnerable and are some of the hardest hit by the shyrocketing prices resulting from the Horn of Africa drought.
We fed 116 families, including more than 300 children, in a short amount of time, thanks to the amazing generosity of our donors, the ingenuity of our Ethiopian partner, and good financial management by the Vulnerable Children board of directors.
We have already fed 116 families... your additional contributions will be added to our project fund, which will be used for either more food aid in the future, or other child/family-directed projects in Ethiopia.
