Honoring Oromo Elders. Preserving Legacy. Inspiring Generations.

About us

Our Story

Yuboota Oromoo was founded with a simple but powerful purpose: to say thank you.

For generations, Oromo elders have contributed through education, leadership, cultural preservation, and community service. Many of these contributions go unrecognized. Yuboota Oromoo exists to change that.

For the past three years, Yuboota Oromoo has selected and honored individuals annually—celebrating their impact and documenting their legacy for future generations.
