With about 105 million people, Ethiopia is one of the most populous and poorest nations in Africa. The main challenges are sustaining its economic growth and accelerating poverty reduction.<\/p>\n

Benishangul-Gumuz region lacks infrastructures and basic services such as health facilities, education, clean water and food. The total population amount to 235\u2019368 people. Most of them being farmers that also hunt wild animals and gather honey, wild fruits, roots and seeds to sustain themselves. Gumuz people have endured a long history of oppression. They were at one time considered as slaves. This oppression has played a large part in preventing them from developing and modernizing. The majority of the inhabitants are Ethiopian Orthodox (53.5%). While 21% observes traditional religions, 18.6% are Muslim, and 4.4% are either Protestant or Catholic.<\/p>\n

\u201cA Chance In Life\u201d formerly known as \u201cOpera per il Ragazzo del Strada\u201d was founded in 1945 by Monsignor John Patrick Carroll-Abbing to provide \u201ca chance in life\u201d to orphans and vulnerable children living on the streets of Rome by sheltering them into so called \u201cBoys\u2019 and Girls\u2019 Towns\u201d. The Towns in Italy have touched the lives of over 30,000 young people.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

In 2015 the \u201cA Chance In Life\u201d decided to take this successful approach beyond the Towns in Italy and has established its first Boys\u2019 and Girls\u2019 Towns of Ethiopia to support 400 children. In 2016, the Boys\u2019 and Girls\u2019 Towns expanded to the tribal areas of Southern India where it supports 1\u2019000 children.<\/p>\n

Finally, in June 2018 A Chance In Life inaugurated Boys\u2019 and Girls\u2019 Towns in Bolivia, Colombia, Guatemala, and Peru where together with local partners it serves over 1\u2019000 children living in marginalized and impoverished communities.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Through this integrated approach at different levels including health, education, moral support, social and pastoral activities, about 500 children from the Gumuz region will benefit from this program each year. The power of Catholic education will continue for generations, providing important social and humanitarian impacts that will promote the Roman Catholic values and messages of charity, compassion, respect, tolerance and love.\u201d<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
