Abraham and Dame

This is Abraham, who is 35 years old, with his horse, Dame, in Soro, Ethiopia.

Abraham and Dame

Dame works as a pack animal, carrying goods up to 18 miles to help Abraham earn $2.50-$5 per day. Before Brooke started working in his community, Abraham's horses only lived about two years. They died from wounds and other problems, especially during Ethiopia's dry season.

But now Abraham manages wounds, feeds well, gives rest, and provides padding on the harness. His horses are strong, and he’s making a good income. Abraham learned these valuable skills, and both he and his animals are benefitting -- all thanks to our donors!
