Literacy Can't Wait in Ethiopia

Fundraising Update Four 11 December 2025 This project aims to significantly enhance the quality of early childhood education at Addis Hiwot Preschool in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. By addressing critical infrastructure gaps, improving educational materials, and fostering greater parental involvement, we seek to create a nurturing learning environment for children aged 4 to 6. Investing in quality early childhood education aligns perfectly with the aspirations of SDG 4 and is the foundation for lifelong learning and success. Our fundraising activities are ongoing and we are proud of current donors. We are far behind of our goal, $150,000. We raised only $0.50 since we posted the project. We can’t fulfill our mission without partnerships and supports from individuals, families, and companies that are inspired and concerned about quality youth sexual and reproductive health and rights. Once again, we want to express our deepest gratitude for your unwavering support. Your generosity makes a real difference in the lives of those we serve.

Many Thanks,
