Salam Children’s Village was established by Ms. Tsehay Roschli, who is a visionary and mother of many, It was founded 37 years ago in 1985. Mrs. Tsehay was living in Switzerland. At that time, there was severe famine and drought in Ethiopia, especially in the northern part. As a result, many Ethiopians died. A large number of children have lost their parents.

Mrs Tsehay, who saw this sad news on a TV channel in Switzerland, thought that she must do something because her spirit was disturbed, she brought clothes and money she collected from her friends and relatives and distributed them to the victims.
