About Kebebe Tsehai OrphanageThis is the oldest state-run orphanage in all of Ethiopia. It is a government funded orphanage, but they do not get a lot of money from the state. It houses children from infancy to 8 years of age and there are about two caregivers for every 30 children, which is extremely difficult to manage. The main organization that supports this orphanage is the Adera Foundation.

Diaper Drops |
Our driving purpose is the survival of these children who are at a delicate age and are need of as much aid and nurture as possible. The orphanage has children from infancy to 8 years of age. Each baby is "allotted" 2 diapers per 24 hour period due to the constant diaper shortage. Through fundraising and donations, we buy material goods such as diapers, rubber gloves, and other sanitary items to send over to Kebebe Tsehay Orphanage . We call these "missions" diaper drops.
