Introducing Amen Bakery

At Amen Charitable Organization, we believe in empowering the children in our care with not just immediate support, but also sustainable solutions for their future. Our bakery, established in 2023, is a cornerstone of this mission. Located in the heart of Addis Ababa, the bakery serves as both a training ground and a source of income, providing our orphans with valuable skills and a path toward self-reliance.

The bakery was born from the innovative vision of Melos Ambaye, a passionate advocate for social change and a student at Washington and Lee University. Melos’s dedication to creating sustainable opportunities for the children of Amen led to the launch of this bakery, which now produces a variety of delicious baked goods enjoyed by the local community. The revenue generated not only supports the day-to-day operations of our orphanage but also funds educational programs, ensuring a brighter future for the children we serve.

In addition to offering training and employment opportunities to the older children, the bakery plays a pivotal role in fostering a sense of community. It stands as a testament to the impact of combining compassion with action, a principle that guides our work every day.

Our bakery offers a wide range of delicious baked goods, including freshly baked breads, cakes, donuts, and more. Whether you’re craving a sweet treat or a hearty loaf, every purchase directly supports the children of Amen Charitable Organization, helping to fund their education and future.

Join us in our journey to create lasting change. By supporting the Amen Bakery, you’re not just buying bread—you’re investing in the future of our children.
