We empower students
of Ethiopia

To foster an environment where every child
can reach their full potential.

Our mission

Asking what's preventing children from receiving an education?

We first began our work by providing school supplies and uniforms to students across Ethiopia. Now we're expanding our services to create a holistic approach to supporting children's education.

As of 2018, one out of four children of primary school age in Ethiopia are out of school. Poverty, lack of access to clean water, poor sanitation, and gender inequality prevent children from accessing or completing their education. We created Tesfa Ethiopia to break these barriers because we believe education is a human right.

Our mission

We empower children of Ethiopia by bridging the gap between needs and resources to foster an environment where every child can reach their full potential.

Our vision

To empower children of Ethiopia.

"We want a library!"

Help us make the dream of a school library come true in Lenchicho, Ethiopia! Libraries are the heart of schools and fundamental to transforming learning. Yet too many schools in rural areas of Ethiopia lack access to libraries within walking distance.

"Just like humans need food to physically survive, in order for our minds and the minds of our students to survive, we need resources and a space to cultivate it."
— Mekonnen Chamiso, Principal at Lenchicho
