Our Lifeline is You
Volunteers are the lifeblood of IEFA. From the beginning it has been volunteers who are passionate about making a difference that have shaped our programs and projects. Without the giving of time, talent, and money IEFA would cease to exist.
The largest part “About Us” is YOU, the volunteers who take personally the invitation to become actively involved in creating and implementing projects and fund raisers that directly benefit the poor in Ethiopia. Please visit our volunteers page to learn more and take the next step to changing lives today


IEFA is an all-volunteer non-profit organization with no overhead or administrative expenses ever taken out of your donations.
It is our pledge that 100% of your donated funds go to direct implementation of your pre-selected project.

The strength of our organization is the people who generously give of their time, talents, and energy in planning, financing, and implementing specific projects or events.
Thank you for your interest; we need your help to accomplish more good!
