Habtamu has already completed 1 year at Axum University where he is studying Animal Science. He applied for our support as he was having to give up his studies due to lack of money.
His father died when he was a baby and he, and his sister, were brought up by their mother. She died when Habtamu was in grade 8. Since then they have lived with an uncle. The sister had to give up school and work as a servant in the house.
Habtamu would like to complete his university education and support his sister in returning to the education system.
It has been agreed to give him a monthly payment of 600 birr + 2 performance related bonuses of up to 400 birr each.
