YCDMF is a local nonprofit making humanitarian organization primarily
concerned with improving the livelihood of degraded Yeteem (orphaned) children
and destitute mothers suffering from poverty, hunger etc. who need the support
and assistance of others. The idea of supporting the poor came into reality with
the onset of the 1983/84 drought that ravaged the country and has affected
nearly 10 million people looking for assistance.Victims faced death through starvation, dislocation of
communities and breakdown of families.
It is mostly mothers and children who were exposed to
consequence of the drought incidence. Mothers and children were left with no
care takers. The 1987 drought had the same catastrophic consequence accounting
for the suffering of people and the loss of the life of millions.
