Project Orotta
Donation protected
Our goal is simple: To galvanize Eritreans all over the world for a worthy cause. Our students at colleges across Eritrea have requested our assistance in obtaining much needed educational technology equipment such as laptops, e-readers, overhead projectors and printers. All proceeds gained from Project Orotta's fundraising events will be used to purchase equipment from the U.S. then shipped to Eritrea. Our previous fundraising efforts were a resounding success. Eritrean-Americans across the U.S. in Seattle, Washington D.C., Dallas and Houston worked tirelessly to raise over $36,000. Let's do it bigger this time. Join the movement! Together, we can make a difference. We're not interested in politics. We're only interested in helping our students achieve their fullest potential.

"Youth nationals residing in USA extend educational facilities to Orotta Medical School
Asmara, 08 October 2013 – A number of youth nationals residing in the US cities of Washington DC, Seattle, Dallas, Houston and Texas have extended educational facilities worth USD 36,000 to Orotta Medical School. The support includes a photocopier, copier inks, laptops and LCD power projectors that were raised from various Eritrean organizations abroad over the past 2 years.
In a letter they sent to the Medical School, the youths indicated that the role of the Eritrean Embassy, Eritrean community members and the YPFDJ in North America has become significant in this regard.
Prof. Andemariam Gebremichael, Dean of Orotta Medical School, noted the importance of such facilities in lecture delivery and other activities, and pointed out that every classroom would have its own LCD projector. He further lauded the initiative taken by the youths, and said that it attests to their living attachment with the Homeland."
