The Community Project is building a community driven K-8 school with vegetable gardens, its own brick producing workshop, bamboo propagation nursery and community facilities for 1000 children and their families in Debre Birhan, Ethiopia. We work in partnership with the community, the local government, Debre Birhan University, Debre Birhan Polytechnic College, 3 Engineers Without Borders teams, Architects Without Borders, and the Ethiopian Mission at the United Nations. Our work is to empower the community with support for better education, sanitation, and economic development for their families.

Our mission is to work together to empower the community with skills and community strength as we build the school for their children. We are focused on opportunities to learn new skills to use to support their families and improve daily life, supported with a powerful network of local partners for their future. | $610 | $8,188 |

The Polytechnic students will make the hand pressed bricks, training the local community in a new micro business. The community will build the school with their own bricks.
