A Partnership in Caring Volunteers visit Eric and Fabrice

A Partnership in Caring volunteers visited with Eric and Fabrice in Gatagara, Rwanda today. Eric is in P2 (second grade) and Fabrice in P1. Eric is very bright, can eat and write with his feet (born without arms). Fabrice’s speech is limited, but improving, and he is learning independent living skills. They seem very happy there and can stay until they finish their schooling. We also support Fabrice’s family consisting of 3 siblings, one older and two younger.

Please consider donating to APIC at apic.rwanda@gmail.com.

A Partnership in Caring Volunteers Visit Saint Bernadette School

We received this update from A Partnership in Caring (APIC) volunteer Maria van Vonderen. Today Maria and fellow APIC volunteer Carolyn Rideout visited SAVE, one of the first Catholic missions in Rwanda. It is also home to the Mother House of the Benebikira Sisters. It is just few kilometres north of Butare in southern Rwanda:

Visited the Saint Bernadette School in SAVE.

It is the oldest school in the country with over 800 students.

Met with 11 students who receive funding to attend school.

They were very engaging and curious about life in Canada.
