Since the founding of Partners in Ethiopia in 2020, the Salmon Arm Rotary Club (salmonarmrotary.org) has been a very generous funder of our projects.

Now in a new partnership, we are co-hosting a Traditional Ethiopian Dinner as a fundraiser to support equally the Salmon Arm Rotary Club's community projects in our local region and for Partners in Ethiopia's educational and healthcare projects in Agarfa, Ethiopia.

Join us Saturday March 29, 2025 for a night of tasty authentic Ethiopian food and cooperative community building while you help us fund some great causes at the Fifth Avenue Senior's Activity Centre at 170 5th Ave SE, Salmon Arm (Google Map link).

So, mark your calendars and bring your appetite for Ethiopian food prepared in the long-established, traditional ways of the Oromia Region of southeast Ethiopia. We have a team of experienced volunteer cooks led by our very own Partners In Ethiopia founder and Salmon Arm Rotary member Woinshet Bayssie, who grew up in Agarfa immersed in this food tradition.

Join us for an unforgettable evening of food, culture, and community. By attending this event, your generosity will be making a direct impact on the lives of people in the Salmon Arm/Shuswap and in Agarfa, Ethiopia.
