Moreover in relation with the challenges facing NGO’s that affect their activity in Dire Dawa City Administration is lack of access to International donors (financial constraint) which affect their overall operational activity another factor which affect their overall activity is that government policy and political instability. The study shows, all selected NGO’s were changing the life of their beneficiaries and also they participate and engage them in the projects/programs they implemented.
