Entoto Mountain is located in the beautiful Ethiopian countryside. There is a village there, half of the village is infected with HIV but cannot take the medicine provided by the government because they do not have enough food. The other half works tirelessy each day carrying loads of firewood up the mountain for less that $1 per day. The children of the village get one meal a day, and have no means of education. This blog is their stories, and the story of a man working to bring them Hope.
History
- Mesfen
- Every passion starts with compassion, and mine began when as a child growing up in the country side I had a chance to see the mistreatment of rural women. Five years ago, I had the opportunity to see the HIV positive community begging around the church and trying to earn a living. Right now for 106 children in this community, I am giving them an opportunity to eat and go to school once a week. In the future, I would like to be able to feed them every day, and provide each child with an education.
