Some of our Activities

School meal

High school children will get school meal (lunch) in Entoto Amba secondary school

Study support and Playing

Children will be supported in their weak areas. We work closely with school community to identify children's learning capacity and gap. Playing games is a very important element for children in order to grow mentally and physically as well as to know their rights and duties.

Income generation program

Mothers of the children will participate in saving and credit (self-help) program by net working with a local NGO called WISE. Work place monitoring will be made by PROCS.
