The small village of Aira located in the Oromiyaa region of Western Ethiopia is our host for our first eco-volunteering project. The development of an eco-volunteering business will give economic support to the village as well as foster international learning through visiting volunteers.
In a joint effort, Lift Kids and Aira Alumni will construct a village and farm near the town of Aira. The village will include a vocational school, an orphanage for 40 kids at a time, a library open to the community. A scholarship program to sponsor the secondary school education of 80 students per year will also be provided. Both the village and scholarship program will be made economically self-sustaining through the income generated by the farm, Domi Farms PLC.
