To support Empress Mentewab School...

An easy way to make a donation to or to invest in Empress Mentewab School is by SWIFT international bank transfer, which is fast and secure. Use the following bank details:

If you are a UK resident and/or UK tax payer, you may prefer to pay through the UK-registered charity called Link Ethiopia, which helps schools in Ethiopia. Not only will you be spared bank charges, but Link Ethiopia will also be able to reclaim Gift Aid where this is applicable. The tax reclaimed will go towards Link Ethiopia's overheads (including covering bank charges incurred when transferring funds to Ethiopia), not to Empress Mentewab School. Link Ethiopia regularly sends funds to its Gondar office and payments for Empress Mentewab School will be forwarded from there to the school's bank account in Debark. See the LINKS section for the Link Ethiopia website which has full details about the ways in which donations can be made. When you make a payment via Link Ethiopia, please make it clear that the donation is for Empress Mentewab School.

Alternatively, the following money transfer companies work with the Commercial Bank of Ethiopia: Western Union, Atlantic, EMT, Birritu Express, Alante Financial Services (Aryas Micro Finance), Xpress Money.
