We are so grateful that Ivan and Eden had the opportunity to visit Because of Kennedy when they were in Ethiopia last week. Thank you for encouraging our staff, women and having fun with the kids!

Have you thought about going to Ethiopia? We have a team going this summer. We would love for you to join us. Let's talk about it! [email protected] Rudy Gleason Katie Gleason

Our families need your help! This is Efe. She saved each week & has worked hard to grow her business. She had 80 chickens a week ago. With her recent matching from BoK she bought food for the chickens….the food was bad & killed 55 of them. Please help us encourage her and purchase additional food for the rest of the chickens and a small sheep. Each year our children receive annual medical checkups. Firaol and Kasahun both need follow up eye care that our insurance does not cover. Let’s get them the medical care that they need. Please Make a Donation! Our goal is $1000.

We are so blessed to have the best staff in Ethiopia. They love and care for our BoK families just as Jesus would. We are grateful! Rudy had such a great time with them when he was in Ethiopia!

Rudy is in Ethiopia having a great time with the kids!

Not only did the kids love the ziplocs and drawstring bags, so did the parents! We are so thankful to be able to distribute over 500 ziplocs & drawstring bags in Ethiopia this Christmas.
