Educating Africans to develop Africa

Welcome to our recently updated web-site, designed to be easier to navigate and more attractive and interesting with many new video clips.

The independent responsive charity run by experienced, competent, caring and dedicated volunteers supporting vulnerable young Africans, principally Ethiopians, have higher aspirations and that self-confidence to achieve their potential through education.

Working through local organizations, A-CET is supporting thousands of youngsters with long-term scholarships and a community rural elementary schools building programme.

All locally selected scholarship students and their backgrounds are well known to us and, with dignity and symapthy, are assisted from kindergarten through to higher education and into gainful employment or self-employment.

No money is spent on UK salaries, professional fund-raising or consultants.

We are NOT a funding charity, please do not apply to us for funds.

Actions not words, for lasting sustainable educational development
