All structures are community-built with technical expertise donated by Engineers and Architects Without Borders. As part of the holistic educational project: 1. We built composting toilets to recycle waste back to the nutrient-poor soil. 2. Developed a Bamboo Propagation Nursery to add economic benefit to the region training young farmers in planting this renewable crop used for construction material furniture making and biofuel. The young shoots are also used as a food source. 3. Our demonstration Apple Orchards train local farmers to plant this highly nutritious and economic fruit not yet commercially available in our highland region. As part of enlarging the educational experience we sponsor educational training for our teachers and founded the first Ethiopian STEM program for grades 1-12. School construction is a primary commitment building classrooms to host grades K-8 in a safe and comfortable environment and to host after-school micro business and educational experiences and skills training in the finished classrooms for 1000 people. 0 48000 Our model Saturday STEM program for 285 children including all grades is the first in Ethiopia in an elementary school. It is so popular we added high school classes and invited the children from the Beta Israel community who are now bussed across the city to join. We employ local university faculty to teach linking our disadvantaged students with the university knowledge base. 0 4737 Our agricultural research successes are expanding the crops previously grown in the region increasing the economic and nutritional benefits to the community. We have proven bamboo apple and enset varieties thrive in our area and we are sharing the agricultural techniques with local farmers increasing the crop varieties grown in the region. We added 2000 sq.meters of vegetable farming to feed hungry people displaced to our area. 0 8270 61007 Angelique Kidd Smith Director Treasurer 54 0 0 0 Colleen Kaleda Cofounder 10 0 0 0 Dr Andrew Carlson Board Director 2 0 0 0 Dr Abiyou Tilahun Plant Biologist Academic Director 30 0 0 0 Prof Fikeremariam Negash Project Manager Structural Engineer 30 0 0 0 Dr Mitiku Garedew Community Liaison and Translator 3 0 0 0 Trhas Mozzobu Teacher Asst Toilet Manager 20 0 0 0 false false false false false 0 false false false false OH Angelique Kidd Smith 506 North Parkview Ave Columbus OH 43209 6146685625 false false false false false false false false false false false NONE NONE X 32364 23733 12000 51171 34009 153277 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 32364 23733 12000 51171 34009 153277 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 153277 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 32364 23733 12000 51171 34009 153277 1 1 0 0.00 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Doing Business As Names The Community Project Part I, line 16 | Other Expenses:, Amount:| communication: phone service, $550| customs tax, $529| money transfers, $560| STEM classes, $3737| classroom materials mattresses black boards, $1016| plants trees compost fertilizer seeds, $1976| educational materials: exercise books pens library books, $1400| transportation visas fuel, $1006| tools, $625| food and clothes for the poor and displaced, $3400| water pipe repairs water meter, $600| STEM materials, $867| solar installation training in US for 3 team members traveling to US for 2 weeks, $2789| excavation of third classroom building and foundation construction, $4000| construction materials and labor for classroom building #2 leveling and terracing construction surrounding building surveying and transport of materials, $32546| staff travel and educational workshops to expand knowledge, $765| School based training for local famers in bamboo crop and apple orchard development., $397| replacement water pump accessories transport customs charge, $3283| Part II, line 24 | Explanation:, BOYAmount:, EOYAmount:| 1, $, $| Part II, line 26 | Explanation:, BOYAmount:, EOYAmount:| Accounts Payable, $, $| Grants Payable, $, $| Mortgages or other loans payable, $, $|
