Transforming Lives, Building a Brighter Future
At TLLM, we are committed to making a tangible difference in the lives of vulnerable children and families. Our programs are designed to empower, support, and create lasting change. Here’s a glimpse of the impact we’re making together.
God’s House
At God’s House, children receive dedicated care in a safe and nurturing environment. Our team ensures they are supported, engaged, and encouraged to develop social, emotional, and life skills. This program provides a stable foundation, giving children the chance to grow into confident and resilient individuals.
Income-Generating Activities
Through our IGA programs, mothers gain skills, resources, and opportunities to earn sustainable income. Training in baking, crafts, and small businesses empowers them to achieve financial independence. By combining guidance with real-world practice, TLLM strengthens families and fosters self-reliance and lasting community impact.
Daycare Program
The Daycare Program offers children a structured and stimulating space to learn, play, and thrive. Every activity is designed to enhance cognitive, emotional, and physical development. While children grow in a safe environment, mothers can focus on training and income-generating activities that improve their family’s future.
Transforming Lives Through
Tikuret Lesetoch ena Lehitsanat Mahiber (TLLM)’s Sponsorship Program, launched in December 2024, connects compassionate sponsors with families raising children with special needs in Ethiopia. Through a monthly sponsorship of $100, families receive essential support including housing, medical care, hygiene supplies, and balanced nutrition for children with conditions such as Cerebral Palsy, Autism, and Down Syndrome. Beyond meeting immediate needs, the program promotes saving and small-business development, enabling mothers to start income-generating activities such as baking bread and injera. In just six months, 20 families have experienced improved health, stable shelter, better nutrition, and restored dignity—building hopeful and sustainable futures for children and their families.
