Partners in the Horn of Africa

Home » About Us » Our Mission

"Our mission is to improve the lives of Ethiopians. We listen to their needs and partner with them on projects that empower communities and individuals and contribute to their well being."

Partners In The Horn Of Africa’s constitution provides that the aim of our organization is:

to advance education in Ethiopia by constructing and upgrading educational facilities at the primary and secondary school level;
to provide relief from poverty in Ethiopia by initiating and supporting economic projects and initiatives designed to provide employment and economic opportunities for residents;
to provide relief from illnesses and diseases in Ethiopia by distributing medical supplies and by providing information and advice to residents about the transmission and control of illnesses and diseases prevalent in Ethiopia;
to advance the above objects whenever possible by working through and in partnership with community based charitable organizations in Ethiopia .

Ethiopia is a diverse and world-class stage for natural beauty and wildlife viewing, although the tourism industry is poorly developed. There are over 845 species of birds and 260 species of mammals, of which 50 are indigenous only to Ethiopia. Important areas of interest are Blue Nile Falls, Tana Lake (largest in Ethiopia), Simiem Mountains (3rd highest in Africa), Rift Valley lakes and the Sof Omar Caves in the south province.
