Global Grants
With funding from a Rotary Foundation Global Grant, Rotarians from six countries have worked to fulfill the basic needs of 50 street children in Addis Ababa over two years. The youths also received vocational training in woodworking, metalworking, and bricklaying, which they applied by helping to build 24 latrines for families in need. The host Rotary Club of Addis Ababa Entoto partnered with the Belgian non-profits Caprioolkinderen and Siddartha Development Ethiopia, which have teamed up on similar programs since 2002, providing food, shelter, and basic education to 300 children.
