Event supports Ethiopian women
Â
Two local lawyers, Kathy Church of Sustainable Solutions and Sarah Armstrong of GE are holding a Coffee House fundraiser for Ethiopia that includes a silent auction and concert at the Gordon Best Theatre, 216 Hunter St. W., on Saturday, Nov. 8 at 7:30 p. m.
All of the ticket and silent auction proceeds will go to Ethiopia through the
Canadian charity Partners in the Horn of Africa to establish a group home for poor, rural young
women with academic promise to access post-secondary education opportunities.
Many of the young women have come
through the charity’s other programs for HIV orphans and school-support projects for elementary and high school students. The group home project needs $10,000 for the first year. For further information about the charity, visit www.partnersinthehorn.org
