Dear Friends and Benefactors,

            First of all, I would like to thank all of you who continue to support our Rwandan children.

            Our beloved Pope Francis never tires of forcefully repeating "DON'T LET YOURSELF BE DEPRIVED OF YOUR HOPE!". And we need, in this world, torn apart by shameful wars, so much hope! The hope of a better world.

            With the help of the Lord, this year we managed to organize our annual Charity Raffle, which was suspended for a couple of years due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Next June (the date is yet to be defined) we will be able to organize our Charity Dinner, aimed at raising funds, while in the summer some of our volunteers should finally be able to return to Rwanda to visit our boys and girls.

            There are many ways to help our children and I am sure that by now you know them well! Distance adoption, one-off donations and the so-called “friend card” which can be subscribed whenever you want.

            With distance adoption, a school, a teacher, books and pens, food, medicines and vaccinations appear in a child's life, but also a place to play and feel protected. With distance adoption, you allow a child to build the foundations for a better future.

            Dear Friends and Benefactors, I would like to wish you all and your families, also on behalf of the members of the Executive Board and our tireless volunteers, my best wishes for a peaceful and holy Christmas and a New Year 2023 full of peace and serenity!

Mr. Giovanni Abbate

President
