New Orphanage & Development Center
Our flagship project aims to build a dedicated orphanage and development center in Jigjiga to provide a safe, nurturing home for orphaned children. This 40 million ETB initiative will include residential facilities, classrooms, a library, and vocational training spaces — transforming the lives of hundreds of children across the Somali Region.
What began as a humble act of compassion — repairing Qurans and supporting vulnerable children — grew into a powerful vision to restore dignity, hope, and opportunity for orphans across the Somali Region.— FZCDO Founding Story
