Together with the Rochedale community, I’m walking 10kms to make a difference for the people of Ethiopia.

This year we will be funding a range of projects that will help to break the cycle of poverty for 600 women, farmers and youth in Ethiopia. 

Together we will be:
-    Establishing a new savings and loans group to support 20 people. 
-    Training 40 women in modern poultry farm management and providing starter packs of chickens. 
-    Training 300 farmers to become beekeepers and equipping them with beekeeping equipment.
-    Training 4 youth groups (80 young people) to make fuel-saving stoves and providing them with the necessary moulds.
-    Training 80 farmers in modern farming practices so they can adjust to changing and variable climates. 
-    Providing local seeds for multiplication to 40 farmers.
-    Covering the crop insurance costs for 40 farmers so they can plant with confidence.

To action all of these practical initiatives we need to raise $16,880.

We would love your help to make this possible.
