Funds for refugees of the Tigray crisis
Our mom and sister, Negest Hagos, started this non-profit 20 years ago or so to help orphaned children in the Tigray region of Ethiopia. She and this organization have raised parentless children and provided shelter, food, and education. Some of her first children have now graduated college with the help of this organization. What she has done is absolutely incredible!
Now she needs help more than ever. The region of Tigray has been attacked for months by various forces and the children as well as many others in the area have been displaced. The orphanage has been physically destroyed but the heart of the organization continues on stronger than ever. She and her organization are going to Africa this summer to help as many refugees that have fled to the Sudan region. These are not just the children in the orphanage they will be helping but any refugees they can support.
Please consider supporting this mission. All money will go directly to helping the refugees.
