Many beneficiaries are not in a position to attend school or receive formal education. HOPE recognizes this and has started two programs to bring education to the needy in a non-school setting. Over 600 street children receive breakfast each weekday morning at the HOPE feeding center in Addis Ababa. After breakfast, the children are counseled and receive non-formal education, such as basic literacy and survival skills. HOPE also runs evening basic education classes (reading, writing, math) for over 100 domestic home-care workers in Addis Ababa, who are not able to attend schools due to financial or work constraints. The cost of supporting non-formal education is $1.00 USD per month per person.
