Water Projects
Water is essential to all living things. In Homacho, Ethiopia, villagers have had to walk miles to collect water and carry it back to their homes in five gallon jugs which weigh over 40 pounds when full. Typically, the physical burden of water hauling primarily falls on the girls and women of the village. Click to learn more.
school projects
In and around Homacho, most children attend schools where the dirt floors were covered with cow manure each Friday in an attempt to minimize dust in the classroom. To date, Friends of Homacho has poured 118 concrete floors in 15 schools benefitting over 13,000 children throughout the region. Click to learn more.
