EKC Summer Mehaber
July 10th, 2010
at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds

5 years running, this event has brought over 1,000 people from 17 states and 3 countries each year, to celebrate Ethiopian adoption, culture and connection. Mehaber means “gathering of friends and family” in Amharic, the official language of Ethiopia. The Summer Mehaber provides cultural programming for kids, workshops for parents on topics such as: cooking Ethiopian food, racism, and giving back. Each year we do a major fundraiser to support a development project in Ethiopia. Last year we gave CHSFS over $2.5K for a playground and sporting equiptment at a school in Hossana, Ethiopia.
