Life Center Ethiopia
Our Partners

We could not do this life-changing work without our amazing partners:

Touch of Love International (TOLI) is a Christ-centered microloan organization that restores human dignity and enables human flourishing through microloans, small business training, and Christian discipleship. TOLI partners with local ministries to break the cycle of poverty and share the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Together we bring dignified, sustainable, Christ-centered transformation to families and communities around the world.

Life Center Ethiopia is a remarkable ministry because everything is interwoven with God’s love. They serve widows wholeheartedly and selflessly. Real change is happening as women understand God loves them. They’re gaining confidence as they provide for their families through small businesses. It’s amazing to be a part of!”

Horizon International is a Christian ministry dedicated to serving orphans affected by the AIDS pandemic in Ethiopia, Zambia, Zimbabwe, and South Africa. Our mission is to create a world of hope through African orphans. We do this by providing child sponsorship that the meet physical, emotional, educational, and spiritual needs of our kids in Africa. Through child sponsorship, Horizon International connects compassionate sponsors with children, ensuring they receive essentials like food, clothing, education, and healthcare. More than just meeting practical needs, we are committed to building relationships, discipling children in their faith, and equipping them to become future leaders who can break the cycle of poverty and hopelessness. At Horizon, we believe that every child matters and that the love of Christ can transform lives and communities.

“Over the past two and a half years, I have been on three teams with Horizon International traveling to Addis Ababa to serve at Life Center Ethiopia, and it’s still hard to find the words to truly articulate the impact these trips have had on my life. I was told prior to the first trip that when the kids become “your kids” all bets are off and that’s exactly what happened. My eyes and heart were opened to people, a culture and a way of loving and giving of yourself that I’d never experienced, and working alongside the Life Center staff is what took that love even deeper. I’m so grateful to God for calling me on my first trip and continuing to make a way for me to go back with trip #4 happening this summer 2025!”  – Megan Rossman
