About Us

Impact Initiatives/Ethiopia (IMPACT/Ethiopia) is a registered non-profit organization established in 2002 (Reg. #: 0038) with its headquarters in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Formerly known as the Impact Association for Social Services & Development, the organization underwent a legal name change to better reflect its evolving mission and vision.

For over two decades, we have been working to strengthen community resilience, empower women and youth, and promote health and education across Ethiopia—especially in underserved and hard-to-reach areas.
