Tasfa, which means hope in Amharic, is what we hope to give to millions of orphans in Ethiopia who are living in substandard conditions with no access to health care, education, and a loving family.  Proceeds from the event will benefit our current projects in Ethiopia, including the construction of an orphanage ad school at Friends of Orphans and Vulnerable Children (FOVC) outside of Shanto, in Southern Ethiopia.

The event will be a silent auction with complimentary appetizers and open bar. Tickets are $25 per person and can be obtained by contacting Shawn Rodda @shawn.rodda@gmail.com or by clicking here

 Earlier in the day, from 1:00pm-4:00pm, professional photographer Greg Cradick will also be taking family photos at the venue, with all proceeds benefiting EOR. 

 Greg is the executive director of a fine art photography school and his work has been shown in more then 24 art exhibitions across the country. The sitting fee will be $50, and will include a 15 minute photo shoot with 15 photos on the CD. To schedule an appointment, please email Tracy Stevens at tracy_stevens@comcast.net with your preferred times.  

Select silent auction items will be available at "buy it now" pricing during the photo shoot.
