CHILDREN
In Ethiopia, a child's right's presence is small but mighty. We would be the first to say that we’re only just beginning. So far, we’re cleaning up water for children with HIV/AIDS for whom safe water is critical. Next we’ll be branching out to public schools. We have a very long way to go, but we’re here for the long haul and fully committed to what that will require of us.

Collaborating with HOPE Ethiopia
Working in Ethiopia's largest feeding center
Every day we provide breakfast and lunch for 1,000 people on the street, and 750 street children . . . These children are living on the street and they don’t get any clean water. This is great for the children. As you have seen, they wash, they drink, they quench their thirst here. That is a great thing for us.
