Where we are going
CHSFS-Ethiopia is in the process of acquiring 5 hectares (12.35 acres) of land from the Addis Ababa City Government to construct a multi purpose building and further expand our services. The building will include
- Foster care center
- Birth mother's place
- Nursing college
- Pediatric emergency clinic
- Primary school
- Guest house
- The main office of CHSFS-Ethiopia
We plan to begin the construction of the milti purpose building as soon as the land is granted. We hope that all who visit this website, will help us realize our dream of helping abandoned, orphaned and vulnerable children and their needy families by providing moral, financial and technical support.
According to our vision, within three years several thousands of people are believed to be directly and indirectly benefited from the different humanitarian and development activities that are to be carried out by CHSFS-Ethiopia.
Families, who come to adopt our children, are our ambassadors. They witness what has been done by CHSFS-Ethiopia. And we believe they are promoting and introducing our organization and its worth-while efforts to the world. We also hope that they will continue providing the much-needed financial and technical support to put our plans on the ground.
Contributions made by each one of you can make a difference in the lives of many children and their families. It doesn’t matter how big or small your contribution is. As part of the contributions made by hundreds and thousands of other people, your contribution can change the lives of many needy families for the better.
