The Ethio-Canadian Charitable Promotional Award Inc. (ECCPA Inc.) was founded in 2016 in Winnipeg, Manitoba. It was created for Ethiopian immigrants and friends of Ethiopians who felt the need to support one another in order to provide various resources for individuals excelling and striving to achieve their goals and improve humanity as we know it.  The main goal of the  organization is to appreciate one another by acknowledging the hard  efforts and humanitarian acts that have resulted in great success in the  Ethio-Canadian community.

We are our brother’s keeper.  By this we mean that we will continue to  strive for positive improvements in our community by supporting our fellow Ethio-Canadians and our neighbors to ensure the quality of  life by providing various resources and access to achieve their goals.
