Addis Alem is one of the oldest school in Gondar, serving 655 children from very poor families living in Kebele 03. There used to be only 1 water tap for the entire school (children and staff) which used to get quite crowded during break time. However, thanks to funds from COFRA (a Switzerland based charitable trust), we were able to change this and now they have a water station with 12 functioning taps! Thanks to COFRA, the Addis Alem students are better able to concentrate on their lessons!
