Walk For Rwanda

A reccent church bulletin had an ad for what is called Walk for Rwanda. This event is to raise money to help the people in Rwanda recover from genocide.
How did this charity come about?
A young girl had an intrest in the African culture. Then her heart broke when she saw what was going on in Rwanda.
So this young college girl got to work. Including getting t-shirts made, a booth, ads to go to different churches, and went to city hall to get all the official paperwork taken care of.
And now my girlfriend and I just happened to go to church where we noticed the ad.
Today we went.
Registration for both of us was $24 total.
So not only did we help out a worthy cause we got great exercise.
(the city also got a whole bunch of much needed rain)
Is there a cause that is on your heart? Do you think that there is nothing you can do?
There is something you can do.
Research. Brainstorm. Network.
Look for a website. Or maybe as with me I'm working on a website that may not fit the category of
charity at the moment but that doesn't mean it won't be important.
Who knows? Maybe it will lead to a fundraiser that will bring awareness to the cause planted in my
heart.
Take a step. Start by thinking about what you would like to see happen that would make this a better place to live.
