Anbessa Foundation
Mission Statement
Anbessa Foundation was founded in 2007, in Oakland, CA, to be a bridge between Ethiopia and North America. We sought to promote the music and culture of Ethiopia to North America and to bring the resources of North America to bear on the many problems facing the birthplace of all mankind. We wanted to preserve the ancient culture of Ethiopia. We believed that the beauty and richness of Ethiopian culture could serve as a catalyst for change in the priorities, outlook, self-concept and behavior of African American youth by connecting them to a proud tradition that is as old as time itself. It was also our intention to “adopt” (provide with food, clothing, shelter, medical care, and education) the 4.6 million orphans of Ethiopia.
Our mission has since expanded to encompass the care of the orphans, the dispossessed, and the disenfranchised throughout the African diaspora, in keeping with the Community of Immanuel’s mandate to care for those who are less fortunate than ourselves. We also intend to promote the music and culture of the entire diaspora by sharing it with the world outside of the diaspora
