We can now donate to Atetegeb online!
2009-10-13
As many of you know, Mrs. Haregewoin's surviving daughter, Sosina Worku, has stepped into her mother's shoes and now runs the foster home, Atetegeb Worku.
We've been hampered in getting donations to Sosina by the lack of an umbrella organization. Now, thanks to the generosity of a few American volunteers, we have an umbrella organization!
Please visit www.hopeforchildrenus.org .
It's a terrific organization in its own right, as you'll see; and there are donation buttons on each page. Givers can specify that their gifts go to "Atetegeb" or to "Haregewoin's children," and there will be a straight pass-through.
Atetegeb, without Haregewoin, is struggling; Sosina is caring for 18 babies and children. Please, please give, if you are able.
The website soon will offer more information about Atetegeb; but, trust me, it's the real thing. Thank you all.
To make an on-line donation, folks just need to go to Hope for Children's website. The address is www.hopeforchildrenus.org. There are donation buttons on each page and they can indicate that they would like their donation to go to Atetegeb. I will get a specific Atetegeb page up on the website as soon as I can.
