The Local Market - An Orderly ChaosWhen you approach the crowd that sell and buy there, from afar the market appears to be the biggest chaos you can imagine. But, it has its order. If you mingle with the people who lay out their merchandise on the ground, you will realize that, although there are no selling stands, and the spots are up for grabs, it all makes a lot of sense...

She’s more than 100 years old!Margarette Mushoga is the oldest Rwandan alive. The inhabitants of Kivumu, a village some 40 kilometers from the capital of Kigali, claim that she’s more than 100 years old, while she, on the other hand, believes she’s 120 years old. At any rate, she buried her husband more than 30 years ago, and time has been of very little significance to...

A Storm in KivumuHail poured down on all of Kivumu. In just half an hour, the ground was covered with several centimetres of it. And four hours later, which can be seen on the photos, everything was still white because of the huge amount of ice that had fallen. Our fellow-villagers now have to deal with the damage that was done, and it isn’t small at all. All crops were destroyed...

Ako ste u mogućnosti, donirajte za obrazovanje djece i rad našeg Centra
Procedura za to je jednostavna i jednaka u svakoj banci. Donacije se mogu uplatiti u američkim dolarima ili u eurima na odjelu za novčano poslovanje u devizama. Sve banke u Hrvatskoj i inozemstvu omogućavaju ovakve uplate. Ukoliko uplatu iz Hrvatske želite izvršiti u kunama to također možete učiniti i to na način da službenika u banci zamolite da vaš novac promijeni u eure ili dolare jer su to jedine valute koje možemo primiti na naš račun u banci u Ruandi.

Volontiranje u Africi
Mnogi imaju želju doći u Afriku. Tako se i nama ljudi nerijetko javljaju sa željom da dođu kao volonteri. Međutim, malo tko shvaća što volontiranje uopće znači. To nije dolazak u našu zajednicu na tri tjedna. Volontiranje podrazumijeva dolazak na najmanje šest mjeseci. I u tom razdoblju svoje vještine i znanja trebaju znati prenijeti na druge. Detaljnije...
Kumstvo djetetu iz Ruande
Potaknuti brojnim upitima naših prijatelja koji bi željeli biti kumovi siromašnoj djeci iz Ruande, želimo objasniti zašto takvu izuzetnu gestu ne prakticiramo. Naime, kumstvo je plemenita, ali i dugotrajna i skupa obveza. Dok je u Ruandi osnovno školovanje obvezatno, ali i besplatno, srednja škola traje šest godina i košta najmanje 300 eura po školskoj godini. Detaljnije...
