This self-empowerment and the community's commitment to the sustainable wellbeing and education of all the children, including orphans and the most vulnerable, was a blessing to witness.
This is why it was especially heartbreaking to learn of the recent Rwandan floods. Lives have been lost, families displaced, and homes turned into memories. |
34 families of the lovely children we met have lost their homes. |
Thankfully the school building and the poultry are fine however the food being grown for the children has been washed away and funding for new planting is needed. Our Rwandan partner Pastor Anastase Rugirangoga wrote:
"here is a lot of suffering and trauma for those who survived as they are left with nothing.
Houses were washed away with everything inside. People are sheltered in churches, schools and tents.
The need is great. Priority needs include – food, blankets, soap, toilet papers, buckets,and basins to fetch water and to wash. The children are trying to continue coming to school even though it is not easy."
