Our Mission

The Adera Foundation shares the Gospel in both word and deed, transforming the lives of the poor with help and true hope.

What we do

Adera’s primary objective is to strengthen the family unit in the nation of Ethiopia. Poverty, disease, poor education, high unemployment and a variety of other socioeconomic factors are destroying the family unit in Ethiopia. Our desire is to facilitate programs to meet basic needs and to promote self-sustainability among the at-risk families. One key area of emphasis is assisting mothers with young children. By targeting this extremely vulnerable segment of the Ethiopian population, we hope to provide loving parents with the training and business opportunities needed to foster long-term success. Our feeding and preschool programs provide the children in these families with the assistance they need not only to survive, but thrive even in difficult circumstances. Adera works closely with government entities and village councils in order to ensure that our work is locally-supported and meets all national and regional regulatory standards.
