Building a Gojo

A Gojo is a traditional Ethiopian structure used for community gatherings, and now with the support of Federation, Ethiopian-Israeli residents of Pardes Channa-Karkur, Israel, will have a Gojo of their own. For more than a decade, Federation has supported this community as they adapt to Israeli culture while continuing to preserve their own customs and traditions. The Gojo will serve as a center for multi-generational programming, including social, cultural and educational experiences for the entire Pardes Channa-Karkur community on the grounds of the local Community Garden.
