Charity profile

imagine1day was founded in 2007 by Canadian philanthropists Summer and Chip Wilson with the goal of ensuring that all Ethiopian children have access to quality education, free of foreign aid, by 2030.

Working under Ethiopia’s public education system and in partnership with the country’s federal, regional and district government education offices, we have implemented programs and activities that have significantly improved the education of over 265,000 children annually.

Since its inception, imagine1day has created access to quality education for over 93,488 primary-age out-of-school children in Ethiopia and dramatically improved quality of education, community engagement and government leadership across ten districts and 507 schools.
