MKI Ethiopia Group
Welcome to the Ethiopia Group of Mending Kids International!
Mending Kids International and the nonprofit, The Ethiopian Family Fund, have a unique and special relationship. The Ethiopian Family Fund was founded by Marla Hodes 6 years ago to help her brother in-law, Dr. Rick Hodes, who has spent the last 27 years in Ethiopia helping children receive life-saving surgeries with the help of Mending Kids. EFF and MKI come together to create fundraisers specifically for Ethiopian children with life-threatening heart and spinal conditions. EFF also travels to Addis Ababa annually with a team of volunteers on an MKI medical mission. Please visit ethiopianfamilyfund.org to see all the wonderful work that’s being done in Ethiopia!
