How Project Ethiopia Works:

• Our greatest resource is community support
• We give money to NO ONE - we buy all materials & implement projects
• We buy local, and hire local to support local economy
• We are volunteers!
  
• We hire at Ethiopian wages or villagers volunteer their labor so they all benefit
