SOS Children's Villages Ethiopia
WHO WE ARE? SOS Children's Villages in Ethiopia (SOSCVE) is a non-governmental, non-political, non-denominational charitable child welfare organization. It was founded in 1974 and has been a development partner since then with positive outcomes in the lives of many children, families and communities. we have been working to build families for children in need, help them shape their own future, and share in the development of their communities. Everything we do is based on the best interest of the child. We help vulnerable families care for their children, and we work to prevent the breakdown of parental care. When children lose parental care (the care of families of origin), we provide quality alternative care in different care settings according to the children’s best interests. We support young people in their efforts to become independent adults and succeed in life.  We collaborate with donors, communities, governments, and other organizations to reach the children who need support when emergencies strike; we focus on providing humanitarian assistance, care, and protection for children and families in coordination with the government and other relief agencies. We continuously measure the impact of our program.
