Story

Thank you for taking the time to (re)visit my JustGiving page. Donating is simple, fast & totally secure and JustGiving make sure that Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation.

Along with our friends, Viv and I have previously raised much needed funds for Centre Marembo. and I am delighted to have another opportunity to visit the centre in late May. I will be undertaking a monitoring and evaluation project in readiness for rYico’s latest and most exciting project yet!

A new plot of land has recently been purchased on the outskirts of Kigali. This land will provide permanent shelter for under priviledged boys and girls with space for educational facilities and development of an area to grow fruit and vegetables and raise chickens. It will also include a large play area. The shelter will include three new buildings at an approximate of cost of £250k.

My work will enable this project to not only get off the ground, but will contribute to the fundraising effort and ensure every penny is spent a wisely as possible.

Thank you to all of you who have previously supported me and rYico and thank you to all new donors. Please give as generously as you can.

Warmest wishes

Andy
