GOOD NEWS! The Mossy Foot Project has now been recognized by the Ethiopian government as the only NGO in Ethiopia chartered with the mission to treat and eradicate podoconiosis. This should create vast opportunities for us to build strong partnerships with individuals, churches, and other organizations to work toward this common purpose. If you have not done so already, check out our new website at www.mossyfoot.com. We will be adding new material to it weekly!
Clive Chilvers, a photographer from the UK visited the Mossy Foot Project accompanied by one of our representatives in Ethiopia, Dr. Gail Davey, a researcher studying podoconiosis at the Addis Ababa University. His photographs and comments are posted at:
Gavin Studer was a member of the team who visited the Mossy Foot Project with our Officers (Jim and Sharon Daly) in March. You can read his journal and get a glimpse of the trip and the work of Mossy Foot at: http://gavinexploresethiopia.wordpress.com/
