Omo Child - Vehicle Replacement

About this Project
This is Lale Labuko co-founder and Gido Sura, co-founder. writing this message.
We rescue and care for Mingi ("cursed") children from the Omo Valley tribal region in Southwest Ethiopia. Mingi is the ritualistic killing of infants and children believed to be cursed by tribes living in the remote Omo Valley region of Southwest Ethiopia. OMO CHILD's mission is to provide a safe, nurturing home and quality education for our rescued Mingi children. We hope that these children will become future leaders and change-makers in their tribes and communities. We also raise awareness about the practice of Mingi and work to see it eliminated.
Often times we are notified of children that have been "cursed" and are going to be killed by the tribes. These are dangerous situations and we need to get to these remote areas quickly and discreetly so attempt to rescue the child. There have been situations where we've been unable to get transportation to the villages quick enough and have the child has been killed by the tribe before we arrive to rescue them. We need our own, reliable land cruiser vehicle to rescue the Mingi children from the tribal villages. The road to drive is off-road so we need a 4-wheel drive to rescue Mingi children from the Omo Valley tribe quickly.
Due to import taxes and other difficulties, these vehicles are extremely expensive and impossible to acquire without outside help.
