A community assessment confirmed it: the need was deep and long-term.
So we stayed.
Children. Elders. Thousands of neighbors.
Twenty years later — we're still here.
Twenty years ago, a flood destroyed a bridge in Weledi, Ethiopia.
When the water cleared, we saw orphaned kids — many raising siblings alone.
We helped rebuild the bridge. But we couldn't walk away.
We are building a sustainable community with safe, one-bedroom homes for each of the elderly we support.
Not charity. Lasting change.
