About Rainbows4children
Rainbows4children is an independent foundation set up in memory of Nicolas Robinson (son of the founder) and provides education for disadvantaged children in Ethiopia – primarily the children of adults with disabilities such as loss of limbs and blindness.
100% of donations go directly to the educational projects. This is made possible because all the administration work is carried out entirely by unpaid volunteers.
The patron of Rainbows4children is the renowned BBC journalist, Michael Buerk.
