          happy and hopeful old man (2)

Ato Assefa Nigussie, aged 60, lives at Shehoch village, at Atsede Mariam Kebele of Andabet Woreda in South Gondar Zone, Ethiopia. He has 4 sons and 3 daughters. He was a hard working man. Unfortunately, his legs were unable to walk/move at the age of 45 in unknown reason.

Ato Assefa became economically dependent on his children after he encountered a physical impairment. Though, he frequently went to Alert & Black Lion Hospitals for treatment in Addis Ababa, he is unable to get recovered back to his former physical status.

Ato Assefa is supported by a wooden bar/ to walk around his village and needs to have an iron made cranch to walk long distances; however, he couldn’t afford its price. He looks after his sheep every day.

To improve his livelihood, IHESP funded by Hope & Healing International (HHI) supported him 3 sheep (2 ewes and a washera ram.) Today, his sheep reaches to 11 in number.

Ato Assefa is happy and hopeful. He moves near their homes and looks after his flocks. Ato Assefa is delighted and feels better hope than before. He gratefully acknowledges the donor who supported him to better his life.

#ORDA gratefully appreciates Hope & Healing International (HHI) for its generous support on behalf of beneficiaries. Thank you for the genuine partnership.
