Help broadcast education and hope while schools remain closed in Ethiopia.

​Without access to education during the COVID-19 pandemic, students are at risk of losing ground in their education. With your help, we can implement new radio education programming for the 7th and 8th grade students in our partner community to help keep learning on track.

At Three Roots International, we believe that everyone
deserves to have the access and resources they need to 
LIVE, LEARN, and EARN so they can THRIVE. 
​

According to the United Nations Development Program,  

88%

of the Ethiopian population live in 
multi-dimensional poverty.

In Ethiopia, a country of 94.1 million people, children and families in 
rural areas are critically 
vulnerable without the physical health, education, or income they need 
to survive and live well.

and income generating activities.

Picture
LEARN
We restore the opportunity for children and adults to learn through high quality early childhood, primary, secondary, and literacy education.
Picture
EARN
We equip men and women to earn a predictable income through business development, savings and 
vocational skills training.

THRIVE


We build the capacity of community leaders 
to maintain program initiatives with skill, knowledge, and integrity, so that communities can thrive for years to come.  

OUR MODEL

Community-led partnership for sustained growth.

Picture
Three Roots partners with the previously-established local church in the community to gather information about community needs and launch programs that are responsive and effective. We use a participatory approach where community leaders and members identify resources and assets that already exist, as well as critical needs. They also help create solutions that specifically meet the needs of the community.

Working alongside local community members, we equip them to strengthen existing structures and take ownership of their development. We aim to see communities thriving with knowledge, health, and economic capacity to sustain their future well-being.


A new beginning for Reta

Reta’s mother is HIV positive, and his father is unable to care for him. Abandoned at the age of 10, Reta was taken in by a church member, and he is now receiving support through the Three Roots sponsorship program.  
You can give the gift of 
education, health, and hope.

Many children in Ethiopia face steep barriers to education. For instance, without the necessary uniform and textbooks, some children cannot attend school. Additionally, family responsibilities often pull them into work at a young age to support income generation. You can help lower these barriers by sponsoring a child.
