The Inspiration School Project of Ethiopia aims to build a complete, fully sustainable school system in the rural Southwest village of Wadeye, where presently no functioning school system exists. We will begin our journey with the transformation of the primary school into a fully functional educational facility, complete with suitable infrastructure including classrooms, desks and chairs, teaching materials, a science center, a library, access to water and sanitation, and a playground. Instructors will be fully certified, and they will be supplied by the government upon certification of the school. We have already formed two village committees, one in Wadeye and one in Addis, and Parent Teacher Association to ensure the teachers receive continuing education and the school becomes a school system that continues to operate at a high level of competency. Please join us in transforming Ethiopia, one new student at a time. Caesar Kavadoy will also describe a project for Peru that is experiencing disastrous flooding.
