On the other hand 12 of Awassa Children's Village grown up girls who are above the age of 16 joined the youth facility, where they rehearse an independent life. The girls are now getting along with life in the facility. And the youth leaders in the staff are always on their side to guide and support them on their day to day activities. The little ones are also doing very well. They are attending their schooling properly.

Awassa Childrens Village in Ethiopia has conducted different workshops and seminars towards child abuse, child rights and developmental psychology for concerned employees. Mothers have also special refreshment training and experience sharing on "How to bring children with good emotional, moral and aesthetic values".

It is a pleasure for them and Awassa Childrens Village's Dads to see the grown up children being successful. Some of the youth who have graduated from different colleges and universities secured jobs and some of them are progressing on their studies.

Awassa Children's Village was also sympathetic enjoying Easter along with street children. They have donated the money they collected as well as used clothes.

Children are enjoying different activities in their respective clubs. Scout Club has been one the adorable clubs. Due to attractive activities the number of new club mates has increased, so the club is now considered as a role model for other clubs in the villages in Ethiopia.

Awassa Children's Village members are very active in the sanitation of the villages’ compound as well as taking part in other social activities in the neighbourhood. They have hanged up small containers on trees showing the village community how to use them for garbage.

The newly established Day Care Centre is in full capacity. The centre has a main objective to help poor mothers and their children. As the centre is accepted by the nearby communities and considered to be a role model by the local small government body (Kebele) the overall activity of the centre has been aired on the National TV, the sole TV station in Ethiopia. It has now been a half year time since the centre started its services. Currently, the Awassa Childrens Village centre is supporting 100 children.

The Medical Centre in Awassa Childrens Village is successfully reaching out and approaching its services to the community in the surroundings. Awassa Children's Village has renovated and reconstructed the buildings and added another block as the number of the beneficiaries is increasing significantly. The overall activities of the centre were aired on the National TV.

Awassa Childrens Village strengthens its training for those children with special needs. In addition to the children academic and vocational training, the village is giving a path-way to silk production.

Some children have passed the 1st stage of production test and about to start silk production with full capacity. The result is promising since the children have acquired some level of experiences.

During the past 6 moths, Awassa Childrens Village has constructed a new green house in its farm.
