The Mathiwos Wondu Foundation, formerly the Mathiwos Wondu-YeEthiopia Cancer Society, was established on 17 April 2004 by the parents of Mathiwos Wondu, who died of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia in 2003 aged four after treatment at Black Lion (Tikur Anbessa) Hospital, together with 13 other founding members. It began with childhood cancer and now also works on breast and cervical cancer, lung cancer and tobacco.

It is a registered Ethiopian resident charity (number 1382).
