About
The U.S. Board includes these members: Vinnie Adams (Nicaragua), Bob Ippel (New Mexico), Rick Hamilton (Michigan), Linda Kamps (Michigan), Nancy Kwasteniet (Michigan), and Berhanu Wmariaum (Michigan). Volunteers Getenet Timmermans and Steve Timmermans assist the Board in its work.
EthioFaith has been incorporated as led by its board in the U.S. and has received its charitable status from the Internal Revenue Service.
There is a parallel board in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. It conforms to government regulations there. The Director of Faith School is Yoseph Gebremariam and he is assisted by Tarekegn Kebede. The teaching staff includes two teachers and two assistant teachers. Because the school seeks to educate these children in wholistic ways, it provides a feeding program, transportation, and parent education.
Faith School occupies the bottom floor of the Morning Coffee Guest House in Addis Ababa. Inside classroom space is plentiful. The school empties out to a courtyard where the children have space to play. Students are transported by van from their homes—some nearby and others further away.
