small orphanage project that will provide children with a safe and
stable home, education and support throughout their childhood.
This will be a solution of solving the problems hidden by the fact

nature of their situation, they are included among those that are
classified as disadvantaged and poor in Ethiopia.
 Problem of Statement

 As we recognize that the children occupy a very unique and privileged

position in our country society, especially Oromo society has a unique
adaptation culture which is called guddifachaa. Guddifachaa practice
is one of the common cultural practices of child caring, supporting,
and right protection system used by Oromo society. Beyond its
cultural practices among different ethnic groups in Ethiopia,
guddifachaa practice may help resolve childcare problems as a
community based approach of a culture as well as the responding to
children at risk both socially and economically.
