St Matthew's Children's Fund Ethiopia (SMCF) was established in 1987. Named after St Matthew's Church in Addis Ababa we were established in the UK to continue the church's fundraising efforts to look after orphaned and abandoned children during the 1980's famines.
Today SMCF continues its long standing partnership with The Jerusalem Children and Community Development Organisation in Ethiopia through funding community led, sustainable development projects. SMCF has Christian roots and it values the support of fundraising church groups. SMCF is not missionary in its approach and it supports the most disadvantaged children regardless of race or religion.
