The Story
We came in contact with a man named Abiye while having a meeting at a local Starbucks; he had heard us discussing a project with another client. He inquired about our services and we exchanged information with him. A few weeks later, we sat down to talk about his project – an organization known as the Ethiopian Sports Federation in North America. A few months later, after many meetings to hammer out details, the new ESFNA website was unveiled. We had met more than just a new client, Abiye and the rest of our contact within ESFNA had become friends.
The Ethiopian Sports Federation in North America (ESFNA), founded in 1984, is a non-profit organization dedicated to promote the rich Ethiopian culture and heritage as well as build positive environment within Ethiopian-American communities in North America. Its mission is bringing Ethiopians together to network, supporting the business community, empowering the young by providing scholarships and mentoring programs, primarily using soccer tournaments, other sports activities and cultural events as a vehicle.
ESFNA now updates their website on their own without our assistance, though we still add additional features and provide support.
If you are interested in learning more about ESFNA, we encourage you to visit their website.
