AJUUJA CHILDREN’S HOME SUPPORT

Hawassa Hope is privileged to partner with Ajuuja Children’s Home Association, located in Hawassa, Ethiopia.

In the Sidama language, Ajuuja means vision. It is the name of the place we have come to love so much, a place that has become a part of our family.

Ajuuja is staffed with very special people who do more than show up and tend to daily duties at an orphanage  We have a group of very talented people who truly love the children in their care, who serve those children sacrificially.

Beyond that, they are involved in the surrounding communities, providing support to the most vulnerable and overlooked people.

Ajuuja is a home to over 50 children. Children who have been found in heartbreaking circumstances; several have special needs. These children are loved and brought to health. While this is being done, plans are made for them to be placed in a family. Sometimes reunification can occur with biological family.  Other times, a local foster or adoptive family steps forward. Local adoption is growing in this region of Ethiopia and we are so excited about this!

We would love for you to partner with us to care for the children at Ajuuja!  We have a sponsorship program in which you are matched with a child to pray for and support at $35 a month. We have multiple sponsors per child to ensure their needs are fully met. You will receive updates on your child and are also able to send care packages. Email us at info@hawassahope,org to see who is available for sponsorship. 

We also have a nanny sponsorship program in which you can sponsor a nanny’s salary for $53 a month.

You can also give a one time or a monthly gift in any amount.
