On September 18th we spent a great day talking to Exeter University students at a Freshers Week event. We set up our table and banner to show people the work of EEL. As a result over 30 people signed up for our newsletter.
To follow this up we will be running a social event in the Exeter Community Centre on 25th October.
Students, we look forward to meeting you again.
Members and friends of EEL, please come and share your stories and enthusiasm.
Light refreshments.
More than 30 people attended the AGM on Saturday 15 June in Exeter. They were treated to a wonderful Ethiopian buffet generously donated by Hirut Von Lamy and provided by Ethiopian caterer, Atsede Gidey.
More than £800 raised so far (before doubling and Gift Aid), all of which will go towards providing school textbooks in Nekemte, Ethiopia.
There is still time to donate.
Click the button below. When you get to the Payment page remember to click on the
Donation to Year of The Teacher button.
Exeter Ethiopia Link is committed to supporting education in Nekemte from early years through to university level. This year we are focusing on the importance of our teachers and looking for ways to support and enhance their teaching skills.

To help to make our projects sustainable into the future we are asking if you could sign up to a monthly donation.
This will buy 12 books for our libraries over a year.
We lend out 3000 books every month.
This will provide tutorials for 3 children to achieve literacy every year.
Over 150 girls have attended tutorials and we are now extending this to boys to bridge the literacy gap caused by covid and local security issues.
