The DEBO Alliance for Orphans is a network bringing together like-minded organizations in Ethiopia to collaborate for best practice and to share resources, mobilizing and inspiring the local community to see every child belonging in a family. DEBO was founded in 2014 and has eight founding member organizations who answered the call for collaboration. In 2014, DEBO hosted the first Orphan Summit in Addis Ababa. This annual event draws hundreds of attendees from all over Ethiopia for two days of inspiration and training.
