Education is a key vehicle to improve the quality of life, and a major priority for CNEWA. In Ethiopia alone, CNEWA dedicates more than $500,000 a year to assist needy children in some 50 schools, including Holy Trinity School in Sebeya.

CNEWA offers three kinds of help to schools in the food-scarce northern region of Tigray: annual operational costs for five institutions, plumbing and water infrastructure for eight schools, and a contribution to food programs providing high-energy biscuits to students in 24 schools.
