To Education
Founded in 1998, Ethiopia Reads has been a leader in building youth and children’s literacy across Ethiopia. The first library was established in 2003, and since that time ER has built more than 72 libraries spanning every region of the country, shipping more than a quarter million books and serving over 130,000 children per year. ER supplies books, library furniture, and critical librarian training, mentoring and networking to library staff – most of whom work in school-based environments. Ethiopia Reads has built libraries where there was previously no access to libraries, most often partnering with schools to establish libraries for their students. Where there were no primary schools, ER has built them. The organization currently operates four of its own kindergartens and K-4 schools as models of best practices, with encompassing roughly 850 enrolled children at any given time.
When you give to Ethiopia Reads, you help us empower people who have the skills and the drive, but not necessarily the means, to make a difference. Empowering the people who surround the children we teach, serves to provide a stronger foundation for the youth of today.
To Wildlife Conservation
Located just 30km from the capital of Ethiopia, Addis Ababa, Ensessa Kotteh is situated on an impressive 77 hectares (190 acres) partly-wooded site. The site was allocated to Born Free Ethiopia by the Regional Government of Oromia. The center became known as Ensessa Kotteh which means ‘animal footprint’ in Amharic and is the first of its kind in the region. Ensessa Kotteh only houses wild animals in need – orphaned or confiscated from illegal trade or ownership. Each animal that enters Ensessa Kotteh is carefully assessed to see whether full rehabilitation and release back to the wild is feasible. Those that cannot be released are provided with lifetime care. Ensessa Kotteh’s beautiful surroundings retains much of the naturally occurring wild fauna and flora. Our education program at Ensessa Kotteh offers center-based learning for schools, nature clubs, colleges and universities. Our intention is to provide an all-embracing, memorable educational experience.
Your support will help fund our numerous campaigns and projects including: protecting and compassionately conserving threatened species; ending animal exploitation; rescuing individual wild animals from captive exploitation and challenging the trade in wild animals and their products such as ivory, trophies, and rhino horn.
