Local Partners
We believe in empowering the people of Ethiopia to make a difference in their own communities. 30 Hearts is proud to partner with the Stand for Vulnerable Organization (SVO) to implement and operate our orphan care programs in Ethiopia.
SVO was started by Misganaw Eticha and his wife in 2005 and the organization now has over 150 staff members with projects all over Ethiopia. They have a proven track record of changing the lives of many vulnerable women and children through a holistic approach. We are honored to work with Misganaw and his incredible organization.

The Mothers
Christian women from the local churches in Bako become staff members of SVO and are trained and prepared for the role of mother. They each live with 5 children in a home at the Family Development Center and view their job of raising children as a high calling.
We are so thankful for the dedication of each mother and the way they demonstrate the love of Jesus to their children. These women are the heroes of 30 Hearts.
Join the Embrace giving program and support the mothers each month as they raise their children.

Stateside Operations
30 Hearts was started by Jeff and Emily Mancinetti and they are currently giving their time to manage the behind-the-scenes operations with a team of volunteers. Since God has been providing and expanding the vision, we are planning to hire full time staff to manage the organization and continue impacting communities in Ethiopia.
Support our administration costs to grow the 30 Hearts team and reach more children.
