Aleta Wondo Links

Our son Tarekegn is from a village called Aleta Wondo in the Sidama region of Ethiopia.  Aleta Wondo is known for producing some of the best coffee in the entire world.  It is also, as you might imagine, very poor.

We thought we would pass links to a few charities that support different projects in Aleta Wondo and the surrounding area in case anyone is interesting in donating.

  1. Thanks for sharing these. We are already drinking the coffee from Aleta Wondo, and it's good. (A** and S** are from the same area). We're hoping to go to Common River when we travel this Fall. But I hadn't heard of the third link you put up there before, so I'm going to go check it out.
