WE ARE NOT A FUNDING TRUST

PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT US for PROJECT/SCHOLARSHIP FUNDING

We are a small charity who constantly struggle to fund our students and projects.
We are unable to fund other projects, students unknown to us or African students overseas, nor do we give loans.
All our voluntary work in Ethiopia is undertaken by Ethiopians.
We are unable to fund or accept applications from volunteers or GAP year students as we lack the funds and infrastructure to utilize these services.
Neither do we have any paid job opportunities.
Please do not waste your time by applying as we are unable to respond.
