The Chapa CarePoint is located in Hawassa, the capital of the Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples’ Region of Ethiopia.
Chapa CarePoint is led by Children’s HopeChest Ethiopia staff in partnership with the Chapa Makaneyesus Church. Many families in the community experience difficulty accessing potable water and medical facilities. Additionally, many children live far away from school, thus, maintaining attendance is an issue. Many parents in the community have died of HIV/AIDS, leaving orphaned children behind.
With the partnership of the Melanie Strobel Connect Community, the children at Chapa CarePoint have the opportunity to grow physically, spiritually, and emotionally while the Melanie Strobel Connect Community also experiences positive transformation!
