UMVA* PEOPLE!
Becky, Sati and Céline are throwing a party**. Welcome are those that bring happiness, laughter, dancing, music, love (possibly romance) and CASH.
The good stuff is for all of us. The cash is for a bunch of street kids in Kigali who desperately need a roof over their heads. Centre Marembo is a place where people young and old come together to learn. They can share their knowledge and opinions in a safe environment. For some, it's the only place that they have ever been able to call home.
The bad news is that an evil money -grabbing landlord has taken away their home. The good news is that you can help them buy a bigger, better one.
Céline and Sati taught at Centre Marembo in 2007 and despite being appalling teachers, both were humbled by students willing to walk an hour and a half to school and who believed in the awesomeness of education and its power.
So if you are coming to the party, donate here, and we'll think about giving you a hug. If you're not coming to the party, donate more. (Why would you not be coming to the party?)
Lots of love,
Becky, Sati and Céline xxx
* This means LISTEN UP! in Kinyarwanda
