Lij and KK,
Swallow you empty pride. how come you don't get embarassed when you see beggars on the streets? When was the last time you gave away free shoes to your relatives let alone to someone else from your own neighborhood?
If you all can't do a thing at least keep your mouth shut when others do.

it is a pathetic situation.We should all be ashamed that we as Ethiopians can only complain but cannot actively help our people(including myself).This individuals left their home to help others,they should be commended not condemned.May God protect and help them in their endeavors.

Complaint has become our way of life
for us Ethiopians. No action, no
sacrifice but calling and labelling
names and complain. Com'n gus wake up
and try to do something constructive
instead of just talking and writing
none sense. Time for action! come visit
us in Ethiopia, we are doing a great job.

Lij and KK,
You ignorant idiots. The embarrassing part is we, Ethiopians who live abroad, are too greedy to help OUR OWN people when they are in need of our help. Take your ass of the couch and do something for the poor people.

Thank you Ayana I agree with you. It is better to help others in stead of talking nonsense. Dont forget the taxi people who was bribing to get more for their greedyness instead of helping their poor brothers and sister.

Hodam Bemulu,

Instead of complaining for the good things that the guy is doing, why do not you dedicate one of the overstuffed luggage that you take to Ethiopia with some shoes that clogged your closet and hand them out upon arrival in Ethiopia? When was the last time you made it home and stopped and talked to a blind beggar on the street and offered him the changes in your pocket? When was the last time you gathered your neighborhood kids and buy them writing utensils? Ask yourself?

And you have the nerve to say " They are exploiting us?" .

This days & in the past American to become rich over night they have to use African & south American KIDS, remember it is not all about shoe it is making profit. Africa being bless with many thing execpt Leaders ,why we people of Ethiopia who live in US & Europ do this? When is this going to end ,if we collect $1.00 a day or save ten dollers a month we couldn't been feeding our countery all over Ethiopia but we cry , cry & cry white man from no where use our kids gust for a shoe & live good life . Some times Ethiopia i think my country pay the price not being colinize by white man i think so i realy don't no what to say any more to people in us who ask me time to time & ever day about hunger & now SHOE. WE all ETHIOPIANS who live in US & Europe let done our people do you know that every Ethiopian who live in US own more than 10 or 20 SHOE so give one fore your people stop saying negitive things to WESTERNS it is called modern day coleny.

Come on guys, these people are helping the helpless people. Also, they are not only giving pair of shoes, but also helping them to wear the shoes. This is an act of kindness, and we should applaud these wonderful men. When did any of you offer such kind of help to your brothers and sisters??????? Please, “ Stop complaining” It does not take us anywhere, but it shows our whiney character.
