New Feeding Camp Inaugurated Near Ababa Bekela Stadium, Expanding Reach to 2,500 Additional Beneficiaries

Addis Ababa, July 15, 2023 – Babul Keyer USA celebrated a major expansion with the inauguration of a new feeding camp near Ababa Bekela Stadium, extending the organization's reach to an additional 2,500 beneficiaries daily.

The new facility, constructed to meet growing demand, provides nutritious meals to vulnerable communities in the area, complementing the original feeding site in Addis Ketema. Families who previously had to travel long distances for meals can now access food closer to home.

"I used to walk two hours each way to get to the other feeding center," shares Genet, a mother of young children. "Now I can bring my children here in just 20 minutes. This new camp has changed our lives."

The Ababa Bekela camp represents a significant expansion of Babul Keyer USA's infrastructure, which now includes two active feeding sites, a fully equipped training center in Kality, and a major construction project for a 5,000 square meter multi-purpose complex in Kolfe Keranio.

With this expansion, Babul Keyer USA now serves 7,500 direct beneficiaries daily across its two feeding camps, with plans to further increase capacity as resources allow.
