Melaku Bruk

(1967–2020)

In 2008, Melaku was among the first people to join L10K. His colleagues considered Melaku, the operations director, “the glue” of the project: he made sure that everyone was included and he had a special relationship with each staff member. His family considered Melaku “the pillar:” he supported family members to further their education or establish a small business. Melaku is survived by his wife Messi, daughter Mela, and son Dagmawi.
