They were chosen by the village elders as the girls who had the greatest need. Through partnerships with our sponsors, we empower these girls to achieve a better future for themselves and their communities by giving them the opportunity to go to school. To accomplish this, we provide them with:Medical check-ups/careResources for proper hygieneSchool uniforms and suppliesAgreements with their families to keep their daughters in school in exchange for grain and cooking oilAfter school tutoring three times a week to ensure successful academic progressFUTURE:Our goal is to increase the number of sponsored girls every year.The second phase of our project involves developing the Adu Darara Center in Kofele, Ethiopia. Currently we have an acre of land which is ready for the center built. A generous architect has drawn the plans for the center. Once funding is complete the center will be built by dedicated individuals. The center will specifically target young girls and their families, providing them with direct access to:Supplementary education and additional tutoring services Access to resources for proper health, hygiene and nutrition Education regarding the detrimental effects of genital mutilation Leadership training and community outreach Outlet for families to provide artwork and crafts in exchange for a fair price to supplement their incomeEducation regarding sustainable agriculture techniques Regularly scheduled Back to School Nights with whole family attendance to showcase the progress that is not only changing the participating girls lives, but also the entire community of Kofele. The compound will be a protected and guarded environment where the girls will be sheltered from the possibility of kidnapping or rape. Tangible Hope strives to put an end to the social norms throughout much of the developing world where young girls are considered unimportant and disposable. 50404 X 17970 50404 Tilile Yoseph Founder, Ex Dir 40.00 33333 Brian Hertz Director 0 0 Thomas Warner Director 0 0 Janet Dean Chair Treasurer 0 0 Dove Vallender Director 0 0 X false false false false false false false false 0 0 false false CA Janet Dean 166 Cazneau Avenue Sausalito CA 94965 4154508981 false false false false false false false false false false false false false NONE NONE true X 33579 25451 51906 79242 82364 272542 0 0 33579 25451 51906 79242 82364 272542 56848 215694 2 2 2 4 1 11 0 11740 5098 16838 289391 0.74530 0.88930 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Grants and Similar Amounts Paid In Excess of $5,000.1 | Donee's Name: Chaltu Yoseph | Donee's Address: PO Box 102345 Addis Ababa Ethiopia | Cash Amount Given: $17970 Other Expenses.1001 Advertising and Promotion $2000 Other Expenses.1005 Travel $705 Other Expenses.1007 Conferences, Conventions, and Meetings $37 Other Expenses.1009 Depreciation $267 Other Expenses.1 Telephone $1282 Other Expenses.2 Accounting $963 Other Expenses.4 Website Hosting $244 Other Expenses.5 Computer Software $99 Other Expenses.6 Office Supplies $79 Other Expenses.7 Bank Charge $57 Other Expenses.8 Business Licenses $25 Other Assets.1002 Furniture and Fixtures - Beginning $1336 Furniture and Fixtures - Ending $1069 Total Liabilities.1 Payroll Liabilities - Beginning $0 Payroll Liabilities - Ending $370
