Our Story

About Abizeer

Origins

Inspired by the legacy of Abu Dharr—the companion of the Prophet (ﷺ) renowned for his commitment to social justice—Jemal Abdu began a mission to serve the most marginalized members of society: orphans. What began as a personal spiritual journey evolved into the Abizeer Community Development Organization (ACDO). Registered on October 8, 2019 (Registry No. 4489) under Proclamation No. 1113/2019

Operational Excellence

Headquartered in Addis Ababa (Bisrate Gabriel, Shimekit Building), ACDO maintains a primary logistics hub in Bati to ensure efficient distribution. Our organization is led by high-level professionals and governed by robust, tailored policies covering as HR, Finance, Safeguarding, and Procurement to ensure the highest standards of transparency and service delivery.
