Our volunteers identify young people with the desire to experience and learn things outside of their daily norm, things that may change the course of their lives. Ethiopian Benefactors Society Inc. will ensure that all of our beneficiaries have a steady foundation (i.e. food, clothes, shelter, and basic schooling) whether through their parents or a secondary source, before exploring the deeper vision these young persons have for themselves and their future. Our beneficiaries will be encouraged to excel at whatever endeavor they desire. Their progress will be tracked and reported regularly to all benefactors.
Update: EBS Adult Vocational Program:
In our efforts to give the young people of Addis Ababa the ability to dream big about their future and attain the knowledge and confidence to fulfill those dreams, we have found that there are many hard working young adults that with a little support, and a skill or trade, can market themselves better to employers and build better careers that may change the course of their lives. Therefore, we have begun to implement the EBS Adult Vocational Program to give young adults a second chance at obtaining the knowledge and skill set necessary to succeed in the modern world.
Update II: EBS Elementary:
As we continue to help young people get the schooling they need to be successful and self-sufficient adults, we have found that many do not have the educational background upon which to build towards their dream careers. Many fields are not attainable to them due to the lack of proper elementary education. Therefore, we are implementing EBS Elementary to support the youngest students, in the earliest years, and hopefully see them through their university careers.
