Mothers and Children Multi-sectoral Development Organization (MCMDO) is an indigenous, non-governmental, not-for-profit and humanitarian organization founded in 1997. Formerly known as Welfare for the Street Mothers and Children Organization (WeSMCO) was re-named in 2009 due to the broadened thematic areas the organization is increasingly dealing with. The same year MCMDO registered with the Charities and Societies Organization (CSO) as an Ethiopian resident charity with a certificate number 0022. After the Government reform the new Civil Societies Organization Proclamation No. 1113/2019 endorsed. MCMDO is re-registered with the new proclamation as local Organization with a certificate number 0022. At the time of its establishment the organizations’ main focus was preventing ‘street-ism’ and promoting rehabilitation.
