Marissa Clement

HopeChest Ambassador

Advocating For Ethiopia

My cousin, Zema, was adopted from Ethiopia 16 years ago. We just got back from a two-week trip where we visited Addis Ababa, Hawassa and Arba Minch. We went to Woyera Kalihiwot CarePoint while we were in Addis and we met lovely children and parents.

I would like to share with my community my passion to help the CarePoints in Ethiopia. Will you join me?
