Current Projects

 

In partnership with our brothers and sisters in Lalibela, Ethiopia, we have overseen an initial allocation of funds from related work to be implemented in the preparation, design and construction of a local community center focused on historical, cultural and botanical preservation, educating through food and farming, music and art, language, and accessible information. We are in the preparation and design phase of the center that is located in close proximity to the world famous rock hewn monolithic churches the town is most known for.

(Lalibela, Ethiopia)

Although the famous rock hewn churches were left untouched by the recent war, many businesses and centers including the airport, agricultural land and local schools were looted and heavily damaged. Through a partnership with our brothers in the community, we chose to commit a series of funding from heirloom related work that was put to use for classroom improvements and revitalizations at local primary schools in Lalibela, Ethiopia.

Previous Projects

(Lalibela, Ethiopia)

This land was leased, prepared, tilled and sowed by the community to serve as an additional source of income and nourishment at a time when food items were starting to become scarce and steadily rising in cost due to the recent conflict. As part of our ongoing partnership with our brother from the community, proceeds from The Healing of the Nations went towards the establishment of the garden that was to be an environment for teaching and learning, a place to build and strengthen skill sets. Before the crops had a chance to yield, however, the land and surrounding area became part of the battlegrounds when the fighting came to the doorsteps of Lalibela in August of 2021.

(Hawizen, Ethiopia)

 The Ethiopia of tomorrow depends heavily on the decisions of the next generation. The protection of their wellbeing and the ensurance of a well rounded educational journey is of great importance for our collective future. In collaboration with our brothers from Hawizen in the Gheralta mountains of northern Ethiopia, we chose to contribute funds from The Healing of the Nations to be used for the revitalization and enhancement of a local school at Abuna Yemata Guh in Hawizen. This included restoring the roof of the building and the manufacture and installation of lavatory room stall doors for students restrooms.
