Loko walks alone for eight hours a day, in shoes so thin that thorns repeatedly pierce through to her feet, to gather and sell firewood so she can feed her children.
‘I pray to God as I walk, asking him to change my life and lead us out of this.’
Loko refuses to give up hope. She dreams of owning a cow one day; its milk would help her children to grow strong, and she could also sell some so she could save enough money to set up a small business buying and selling tea and coffee.
Christian Aid Week 2015 will focus on our transformative work in Ethiopia.
Hannah recently visited projects in Ethiopia featured in this year’s Christian Aid Week.
