Join the Adera Foundation for lunch, laughter, and lots of love as we gather to create valentines for every Adera

By Katie Hoang Life-changing. Selfless. Generous. Persevering. These are words to describe the work that the Adera Foundation does in

At Adera, we know that for each of our students, passing Ethiopia’s sixth, eighth, and twelfth grade national exams is not just an academic milestone — it’s a lifeline.

At Adera, bead parties are more than just creative gatherings—they’re a way to build community, celebrate culture, and share stories of transformation.

We are honored to welcome Jim Gash, President of Pepperdine University and author of Divine Collision, as our keynote speaker—joined by Tumusiime Henry, the young man at the heart of his remarkable story.

At Adera, we believe in the power of presence. Physical touch, connection, and shared experiences are vital to both emotional and physical well-being.
