Adams Thermal Foundation, a 501(c)3 organization based in Canton, SD, was established in 2013 for the mission of 'alleviating the suffering of the most vulnerable, confronting all forms of human poverty in our communities, our nation and our world.' Currently, Adams Thermal Foundation operates two schools for the "poorest of the poor" in Ethiopia. In addition, these schools offer "self-help" programs for parents to learn business and job skills. Together, these programs seek to break the cycle of poverty and lift children and families out of despair and hopelessness.
