All profits and gratuities will go to Rescue Hand in their continued efforts to support underprivileged children and mothers in Bishoftu.
In the busy streets of Bishoftu, many single mothers wake up each day with the one dream -- to give their children a better life.
But for women living in poverty, that dream often feels out of reach. These women are strong, hardworking, and full of hope. Yet many of them are for single mothers, struggling to care for their little ones while trying to earn enough to survive. That's where Rescue Hand comes in. Rescue Hand is a small charitable organization based right here in Bishoftu. We provide free childcare for children aged zero to four, children who would otherwise spend their days on the streets or in unsafe places while their mothers work. With us, every child receives nutritious food, clean diapers, medical care, clothing, and shoes, all in a safe, loving environment. This simple support changes everything. With their children cared for, mothers can finally work with peace of mind. They can focus on earning a living, saving for rent, and building a stable future for their children. In just two years, rescue hand has touched many lives, operating entirely on its own without external funding. Every meal, every blanket, every pair of shoes has been provided through love, commitment of our own dearly beloved family members.
There are more mothers waiting and more children who need a safe place to grow and smile. Today, we are reaching out to you to lend us a hand in reach to many more of these children and making their world brighter. Your support can help us reach many more families. Together, we can give these children the chance to grow healthy and strong and give their mothers the dignity of work and hope for a better tomorrow. Let's make our happiness complete by saving these children.
Happy Holidays.
Everything is Eshi.
