Ethiopia- And They're Off!!

ENA board members and expedition participants are currently en route to the village of Kaliti, Ethiopia for our expedition!


This is Engage Now Africa’s 23 rd expedition to Ethiopia and this year we will be working in the rural village Kaliti. 

Kaliti is approximately 60 miles South of the capital city Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.  There are 11 people from the US participating and 8 in country people who will be working along side us.  We will be painting one of our new block schools, sanding and varnishing desk tops for students and constructing latrine enclosures. We will also be teaching numerous classes to villagers about personal hygiene and sanitation, feminine hygiene and modern day slavery (human trafficking). And when participants aren't building or teaching they will most definitely be spending every free moment they have playing games with the village children (always a highlight!).

ENA staff and participants will be working in the village for 10 days and are all very excited about the projects they will be working on with our dear friends in Ethiopia. We can't wait to bring you pictures and stories about the expedition next month!
