Our vision is to give needy Ethiopian children and their parents who live in extreme poverty, the opportunity for a comprehensive change, so that they can live a happier life with Christian values and awareness for honesty, love and responsibility:
- to bring forth healthier, more conscientious, loving citizens, that take responsibility and make a difference in society,
- to see the healing of broken hearts, especially among those of single mothers and their children from broken families,
- to re-establish the dignity of women and children who were forced into an inhumane lifestyle, of begging and degrading jobs, by their poverty,
- to positively influence the lives of children and their mothers, by giving them the timely education they cannot afford,
- to provide needy single mothers, that are needed on the job market, with practical skills, so that the cycle of poverty is broken.
