Primary School Dedication

Today was the big day, the day of the dedication of Faith Primary School. We were thrilled that Arlene planned the event to coincide with our visit. Many dignitaries were invited including the Vice Mayor, the consular to the embassy, members of Arlene's board and village officials. She also had several university students that she is sponsoring join in the celebrations.

Thank you to everyone who helped our teams pay for one classroom at the primary school. And thank you Haley Justice, a State High senior, who raised the final $1,000 through the Hearts for Rwanda art show. This made the dedication so very special to all of us.
