That is why I am very passionate about the “Our Vision for Ethiopia” organization and privileged to be part of. I vision to see a prosperous Ethiopia with far less health disparities, and high quality of care. I vision women and kids will no longer be victims of social stigma; rather, empowered and having easy access for better education, and health care; and thriving for success.“ |
