The Aysanew Kassa Trust honours the memory of Aysanew Kassa, who lived in Azezo, just outside of Gondar in northern Ethiopia
From an early age, Aysanew became aware of how important education was to the young people of his village and of his country. When his life as a lawyer took him not only away from his own community in Azezo but also out of his native country of Ethiopia, he still continued his links with his home village and did all he could to ensure that the poorer children of Azezo were given the opportunity to complete their education. Aysanew and his wife, Jean Bailey, established a small fund to provide pens and exercise books and a small monthly stipend to enable them to complete their high school education. After his death in 2001, the Aysanew Kassa Trust was set up to continue this important work, and the project is supported and funded by donations from friends, family and supporters both in the UK and in North America.
