Tigray Community of Oregon (TCOO) was established to unite the Tigray community of Oregon towards the common goals of uplifting the Tigray Community through charitable work in the areas of education, healthcare, nutrition and other basic needs within resource-limited areas in Africa and USA. The Corporation is organized exclusively for charitable, educational, religious, and scientific purposes under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or corresponding section of any future federal tax code.
The charity’s focus is enabling communities to empower themselves by giving children access to education (Set-up Computer centers for orphanage and under served communities), renovate schools and provide educational supplies, provide basic needs (such as sanitary pads to school girls so they don’t miss schools). We also provide feeding programs to schools and elderly centers so that they get proper nutrition to stay healthy.
TCOO is a legally registered non-profit organization in Portland, OR.
Our mission’s success depends on the support of its members and donors. All types of support and contributions (financial, ideas, material etc....) are welcome. TCOO is in the process of becoming a tax-exempt 501(C)(3) non-profit organization. Your gift is tax-deductible as allowed by law.
