The idea for Reach International Center of Education (RICE) was conceived in the early months of 2012 arising from two sparks.
The first spark was seeing yet again the demand by parents for an education that will both prepare their child academically, but one which will also lay a solid moral and ethical foundation, developing a child’s character; a character especially moulded with Christian values.
The second spark was the desire to provide quality international education that would encourage Ethiopians living abroad to return to Ethiopia. Ethiopians who live overseas or have been studying overseas with their families are often concerned about the education of their children when returning. This concern has unfortunately resulted in many families deciding to remain overseas. We would like to see RICE provide one contributing factor for Ethiopians to return to their home country of Ethiopia.
