Ethiopia

DONATE

Our Ethiopian programs operate in one of the very poorest sections of the world. Some of our clients have never worn shoes, and many are malnourished. Tuberculosis, severe childhood malnutrition and complications during delivery are among the many life-threatening health issues we see on a regular basis.

Agaro Bushi Medium Clinic

Lalmba's Agaro Bushi Medium Clinic stands as a beacon of hope in the remote, mountainous village of Agaro Bushi, Keffa, Ethiopia. Nestled at an elevation of 7000 ft and surrounded by lush forests, this clinic serves a community facing profound poverty, where the simple luxury of owning shoes is often unattainable. Life is challenging in this beautiful yet harsh environment, making the clinic's medical services crucial for the well-being of its inhabitants.

A Beacon Of Hope

In a beautiful and incredibly remote community

In and around Agaro Bushi, life is rooted in simplicity and hardship. Our medical director noted that only about a quarter of clinic visitors wore shoes, illustrating the profound poverty. Families subsist on what they can grow in their small gardens or farms, possessing very little beyond the essentials for survival.

Chiri Children's Home

An Emergency Home For Orphans

The Chiri Children’s Home provides for 15 orphans who have no family to care for them. One child came to the children’s home after she was found sitting next to her mother who had collapsed on the side of the road. No one in Chiri knew this woman or her daughter, and the mother soon died at our health center. In times like these, Chiri Children’s Home serves a great need.
