A visit to a country of one thousand hills

From the 8th to the 13th of September 2008, our voliunteer – Aleksandra Gutowska has paid a visit to Rwanda. From several months Simba Friends Foundation has been cooperating with Imbuto Foundation Imbuto Foundation established by the wife of the president of this country, Ms. Kagame. During many meetings with the foundation representatives, mainly with Ms. Radegonde Ndejuru, many ideas appeard. Let's hope those plans will be realized in the near future.  

Aleksandra had a pleasure to met the Poles who are currently staying in Rwanda. She visited Nyamata, where in the cadre of international volunteering program, the volunteer of the Center of Development Cooperation - Konrad, is organizing the trainings of the basic knowledge of the Microsoft Office programs. She met also the franciskans sisters – Rafaela and Maria, who in the cadre of the Small Grants fund realize the project of building the center for blind children in Kibeho (southern Rwanda, close to the border with Burundi). In this small town other missionaries from Poland – Paulins are planning to implement the project which aim is to build the hospital.

 It turned out that in Rwanda community of Poles is quite numerous.
