You can help some of the most vulnerable people on Earth
We’ve teamed up with local, grassroots organisations, run by Ethiopians for Ethiopians. Every time you donate, you directly help local people, programs and communities. Together, this is how we can make a lasting difference in the lives of the most vulnerable.
