Mission made possible by positivity
On his last
visit to RDC, Yamandou battled with bureaucracy and
mosquitoes to galvanise the construction of the school
in Kalebuka. He smiled through meetings with donors and
diplomats, he embraced the people of the village who
offered their labor, and he negotiated costs with
construction companies and contractors.
This school is
not just about education. It is about a holistic
approach to poverty alleviation, complete with solutions
to health and hygiene, as well as income generation and
employability skills.
We are teaching
the people of the village to make bricks for use in the
upcoming construction. We are in the final push of
building phase one of this school. Please help us get
the children into the classrooms by donating what you
can so that we can create a space where they can begin
their journey towards empowerment.
Thanks to
all of you, the GMF dream is able to stay alive!
