The RWANDA Orphans and Vulnerable Children Organization (OVC RWANDA) DESPERATELY NEEDS HELP!!!
By admin on Feb 17, 2010 in Our Daily Planet, Unstoppable Planet
My Dear Friend Emmanuel UWAMAHORO contacted me yesterday with a sincere plea for help. It seems that mudslides and rains have taken out the kitchen and the toilet faclities of his orphanage that houses 89 children! YOu can imagine why he needs your help, ASAP!!!
The organization was already in trouble as earlier this year, Emmanuel has been looking for fundraising to help him with School fees and orphanage rehabilitation.
The NGO Orphans and Vulnerable Children – Rwanda (Orphans and Vulnerable Children) was founded in 1995 following the genocide of 1994 on the initiative of Emmanuel Uwamahoro (himself an orphan raised by nuns at the age of 9 years ) and David Roy Rene (Br. U.S.).
The objectives of the organization already at that time were:
1. Fighting against beggary and despair among Orphans and Vunerable Children (OVC)
2. Promote socio-economic and cultural needs of OVC;
3. Ensuring education for OVC;
4. Providing medical care for OVC.
NB: Children orphaned and vulnerable children are numerous, for this reason that we have found the most vulnerable children, whether the means we can, we will have the opportunity to increase membership to others
IF YOU CAN HELP- HAVE AN IDEA FOR A FUNDRAISER OR WISH to Volunteer to REBUILD, Please contact either Frankie at Frankie@unstoppableplanet.com OR

Dear Frankie,
I spent two days visiting the OVC-Rwanda orphanage last November. I would like to share my story and photos with you: http://bachersblog.com/?p=653 Can we schedule a time to talk about ways to collaborate to help them?
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Adam
