Gobaith i Ethiopia - Hope for Ethiopia is a charity which initially grew from an informal arrangement of a group of people in Wrexham in North Wales who decided to help fund a feeding programme in the kindergarten of the Abba Gebremichael High School in the city of Mekele in Tigray the northern province of Ethiopia. Through personal contacts, it was discovered that as a result of poverty many of the children had been dropping out of education because their parents were unable to provide them with the food that other children were able to bring to school.
Following a visit to Ethiopia by five of the group in 2005, where the people we met in Mekele impressed us with their warmth and hospitality, despite their meagre resources, it was decided to expand our horizons and attempt to help fund the construction of a new purpose built nursery. With this new vision it was decided to place the fundraising on a new level and to register as a charity. Hence Gobaith i Ethiopia - Hope for Ethiopia was born.
