Previously administered through an actual competitive team structure in Addis Ababa (2007-2017), the focus now will be supporting individual athletes in their athletic goals, while asking in return a commitment to community service. The program will start with modest goal of supporting three athletes during the coming academic / competitive year. The community service will be volunteering among disabled communities in Addis Ababa. 17311 X 17311 17311 Dana Roskey CHAIR 1.00 0 Jeff Grier Director 1.00 0 Julie Corby Director 1.00 0 Scott Wolf Treasurer 1.00 0 Lizbeth Moss Secretary 1.00 0 Jonathan Moss Director 1.00 0 Lacey Yantis Director 1.00 0 X false false false false false false false false 0 0 false false Scott Wolf 2610 GARFIELD AVENUE SOUTH 208 Minneaplois MN 55408 6123542184 false false false false false false false false false false false false false NONE NONE true X 60642 8455 2132 690 83092 155011 38213 38213 0 0 0 98855 8455 2132 690 83092 193224 0 0 193224 0 0 0 0 98855 8455 2132 690 83092 193224 1.00000 0.69790 0.00000 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Grants and Similar Amounts Paid In Excess of $5,000.1 | Donee's Name: Ethiopia Reads | Donee's Address: 2611 1st AVENUE SOUTH Minneapolis MN 55408 | Cash Amount Given: $17311 Other Expenses.1005 Travel $504 Other Expenses.1 BANK CHARGES AND INTEREST $359
