Thank you to everyone who participated in our Together We Thrive fundraising event last week! Because of your support, we raised $20,000 to empower women and save lives in Oromia, Ethiopia!
The power of community, here and in Oromia, is what moves our mission forward. There is still time to give, if you are able!
As one of our attendees noted: “If you divide the cost of a cow by the subsistence daily earnings for Oromians, the value of the cow is equal to more than 7 years of earnings. That’s a life-changing gift!”
Learn more about our mission, approach, and impact here! Here are some pictures from the event. Pictures can also be ordered and downloaded here.
We are so grateful to this community for your support and generosity. Together, we can change the world.
Sincerely, Dureti (Mimi) Tadesse CGWE Founder & President
