Shone Yehiwot Berhan CarePoint

in partnership with Central Wesleyan Church

Shone Yehiwot Berhan CarePoint is located about 170 miles south of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia’s capital. The community is resilient and hardworking, though many families face challenges such as limited access to education, food insecurity, scarce medical care, and dependence on unpredictable small-scale farming for their daily survival.

In partnership with Central Wesleyan Church, Shone Yehiwot Berhan CarePoint provides a safe and welcoming space where children and families can access programs that support education, leadership development, nutrition, health, and spiritual growth. Through these programs, children build on their strengths, families gain practical tools to thrive, and the community grows stronger. 

By connecting communities, this partnership transforms lives, builds lasting relationships, and empowers local leaders to sustain the CarePoint’s mission for generations.

Empower a Child at Shone Yehiwot Berhan

Empowering a child is one of the most personal ways that you can make an impact on global poverty. It is more than providing for their physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. When you sponsor a child, you build a relationship that shows that child they are valuable, worth loving, and worth investing in.

Your sponsorship is the starting point of a journey that equips vulnerable children, their families, and their communities to create sustainable transformation. When you sponsor a child with HopeChest, you are not just supporting one child — you are helping transform entire communities.

HopeChest’s approach to alleviating poverty is asset-based, because we believe that in every place on earth there are resources, not only for surviving, but for thriving and succeeding. Local leaders tell us what they do have instead of what they don’t have, and we walk with them to see their vision for their community come to fruition through development projects.

A fundraiser for Shone Yehiwot Berhan CarePoint is transformational rather than transactional. It promotes empowerment rather than dependence. Your support for these projects will go a long way as, together, we invest in holistic and sustainable solutions that address the root issues of poverty.
