Small Graces That Grow Into Big Change

At EthioGBFF, we’ve learned that small graces everywhere add up—or big graces.
A hand extended to an elderly woman. A girl walking miles to school through dust and heat. A student giving her weekend to plant trees or wash clothes for others.

Each act may seem small—but together, they form a powerful movement of hope, resilience, and renewal. Because of your support, these young women are not only receiving education; they are using it to give back, to serve, and to lead with compassion.

This is the story of education that gives back—where every scholarship, every hour volunteered, and every grace shared becomes part of a much larger transformation taking root across Ethiopia.

Read their stories. Feel their purpose. See what your kindness has grown.
