Catching up with Eyob Teklu

My name is Eyob Teklu. I started in the BCI program in 2008. BCI is my home. I grew up in a better living standard because of BCI. Sponsorship helped me a lot in my childhood. After high school, I graduated from TVT and became a cake baker in Debre Zeyit. Today I am an independent, confident, hard working man because of BCI.

There is a proverb that says “no appreciation is enough for great kindness.” But here, I still want to thank you all for your kindness, which has provided us with hope and courage to live a better life. I would like to express great appreciation on behalf of all those financially sponsored by you.

I am the main pastry chef at Gold Mark International Hotel and a teacher at Bishoftu Hotel Training Center. I am able to provide a good standard of living for myself, my mother and my sister. My plan is to someday own a bakery and hotel training center. I enjoy attending the youth program at church and playing sports in the morning.

To all of you kind people, you help us so we can stand by ourselves. You give us so much love, and I cannot express my gratitude by any words. Through you, God’s love reaches those children who are in difficulty and in need.
