How honoured and privileged Soroptimist International was to be able to work with Catherine to build the Juniper Café at the Desta Mender Village.
It was wonderful to have the opportunity to meet Catherine when she celebrated 50 years of working in Ethiopia. Her peace, calm and positive thinking were amazing, and one felt blessed being able to talk with her. Catherine was indeed a saint and her legacy will live on. I have no doubt that, not too far in the distant future every woman in Ethiopia will feel safe having a baby and have access to medical care and enjoy the birth of a live baby, thanks to Catherine’s determination.
Vale Dr Catherine Hamlin AC and thank you for teaching us to love others.
