Water for the Ethiopian families! Help us save lives with water wells.
What can I say, at least we have water and shelter in our country.
When I visited Ethiopia I was humbled by what I saw. Im very thankful for the country I live in and the opportunities I have. Help me bring water to the people of Ethiopia with our water well project.
Im proud to now be the president of Ethiopian Outreach a 501(C)(3) not for profit corp
I put pictures and videos of our progress at the website below.

If you would like to support our efforts please make a donation. I assure you 100% of the money will go to setup these water wells. I welcome ideas and advice.
All the best,

  • Pete,

    Bless you for devoting your time, resources & energy for the good of the common man.

    While I believe helping starving Ethiopians to over come adversity is CERTAINLY one of NOBLEST mission to carry out, watching Ethiopians shop for arms & wage ENDLESS WARS is one of the most incredible scenarios to believe.

    Therefore, Ethiopians NEED to be told to stop wars before any one coming to help make radical effect for their well-being.

    Pete, Thank you for your sacrifices.

  • @BahreNeGash Thanks for the kind words.. Im not looking for any glory for me @ all. My partner moved there almost a year ago now. He is helping people all over that countryside. I wish I could be there too but im trying to just get him the resources he needs to make some great changes there to better peoples lives.

    All the best,

    -Pete

  • But please don't make your viewers think thats the whole picture. It kind of feeds into the stereotype of what people think of that side of the world. It is not just hungry, uneducated people with no hope in sight.

  • @partyY2Hard Its not but for people in that area, I kid you not; There is no running water, no electric, no postal service and good roads. Some simple things like a water well and teaching them how to garden would go a long way.

    I would have never known if I didnt go.

    All the best,

    -Pete

  • From where I sit I do not see Americans having it better than I America may be a better place than most countries but there are countries that are rated higher by all accounts.

    there is room for improvement in America. overall a good video just that one fact you failed on. you ought to have said we have it better most of the other countries.

  • @dave777blaster I will agree with that. I can only speak on what I know to be true. I only been to 6 countries so far.

    All the best,

    -Pete

  • @316JOHNLT You fucking piece of shit nigger. You fucking Ethiopians and Somalians don't even get respect from black people. Why is that? Let me guess, oh well it's probably that every single one of you pieces of shit that I've met in my life sold crack and spent their time stepping on good people and trying to stab them as well. I used to give everyone a chance. I hung out with Somalians and Ethiopians before I decided I was a racist against only those two races of NIGGERS.

  • As Ethiopian I DON'T LIKE WHITE PEOPLE .The Devil Comes To Steal, Kill And Destroy.That Is What The WHITE PEOPLE Did And Doing AS OF TO DAY.Chak AFGHANISTAN AND IRAq YOU KILL Theam For Oil .And minerals.

  • Check out Jean Ziegler talks alot of truth , in my opinion the biggest crime /sin you could do is look with your naked eye, when someone in is in trouble, not do the right thing, keep up the good work Pete

  • @mixcatcom what is to be proud to be american,what is making you proud,don't you here bless those that are poor,Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted."God blesses those who are poor and realize their need for him, for the Kingdom of Heaven is theirs.

  • Thank you for what you do, but digging wells in Ethiopia is not going to solve the scarecity of water. The only way to help Ethiopians is by building dams and by pumping the water to where there is a need for it.. The Tekeze river is probably about 50 KM from Axum and could easily resolve the water problems permanently.

  • @Deptstate799 Now I wont dispute that, But all people have the same basic needs. To bring water to people that dont have any is not interfering with Gods plan.

    Matter of fact, if my God told me to turn a blind eye to the people hungry or suffering I would leave my God. Lucky for me; my God is a loving kind God that dont forsake his people, he would prefer that none suffer or die. Sometimes bureaucracy of business, government and church gets in the way of progress and aid.

    All the best,

    -Pete
