Why Are You Passionate About EAF?
EAF has a special place in my heart because it provides a supportive community where adoptees can not only celebrate their cultural heritage and be a part of a community that understands and accepts them but also its a space where they can find assistance to achieve their calling in life.

Why Are You Passionate About EAF?
I am deeply passionate about EAF because of my personal experiences and observations. Having gone through the adoptive process and experiencing the challenges and traumas both from my home country of Ethiopia and the transition to the US, I recognized the need for a support system for adoptees. This passion was further ignited when I felt a calling from God to make a positive difference in the lives of Ethiopian adoptees worldwide. This calling is what led me to establish EAF. The organization is not just an endeavor for me; it's a heartfelt mission to provide adoptees with the sense of belonging, encouragement, and understanding that I wished for when I first arrived in the US.
