Mission 127 works to prevent children from becoming orphans by stabilizing vulnerable families in Ethiopia.
Family Preservation Program - Our core program prevents orphans by embracing, equipping and empowering socially and economically vulnerable families. Ethiopian families served in this program are first embraced into their local Christian community to meet their social and spiritual needs. Vulnerable families are prayed for and visited by local case managers to assess needs. The next stage is to equip families to meet their basic physical needs through financial sponsorship. This monthly allocation of support includes food staples, clean water, medical care, household items and school fees/supplies for school-age children. Once the family is stable, they are empowered to become financially self-sustaining. Business managers mentor the mothers/fathers to develop a business plan to launch a small business enterprise in their communities. Once the business plan is approved, we provide the funding necessary to launch the income generating activity or IGA. The IGA loan is repaid monthly by the family over a period of 24 months, at which time the family graduates from the family preservation program, successfully able to meet their familys needs independently. Our family preservation program successfully served 332 families that included 1,165 total individuals during this reporting period. The program is developed in 5 geographic areas in Ethiopia: Bole Bulbula and Meseret Kristos project areas near the capital city of Addis Ababa; Shashemene and Gutumuma project areas in the southern region; and the Dembidollo project area in the western region. These regions were selected due to the concentration of extreme poverty as well as access to markets for small business starts.
