Thank you for your donation to MEDA and your continuous support of our work on GlobalGiving! Because of your generosity, we continue to provide long-lasting solutions to poverty around the world, bringing new hope and dignity to millions of families annually.
As you know, EDGET (Ethiopians Driving Growth through Entrepreneurship and Trade) has allowed 10,000 Ethiopian rice and textile producers to improve their crops and goods, connect with urban markets, increase their profits, and participate in the broader benefits of national economic growth.
Your support has meant increased incomes and improved livelihoods – the makings for a sustainable future. With an average of five people per household, EDGET is bringing positive change and new hope to 50,000 lives.
I hope you’ve enjoyed reading updates of how we’ve invested in promising futures and unleashed entrepreneurship in rural farmers and weavers through EDGET. I love sharing stories illustrating how your support is making a difference in people’s lives.
From all of us at MEDA, thank you for your compassion and kindness! We’re grateful to you for opening your heart to those in need.
While we are now ending our presence on GlobalGiving, I hope that you will continue your support in the ongoing fight to alleviate poverty worldwide.
Please stay in touch!
Thank you once again for your generous donation to our EDGET project. We value your support as a partner in creating business solutions to poverty.
Sincerely,
Linda Whitmore
