A Meet and Greet with our Field Partner in Rwanda
Global Capacity exists to improve lives in Rwanda, Africa through the means of education. This year we are providing 45 scholarships for secondary school to extremely poor children in Rwanda. We would not be able to complete our work or operate well if it weren't for our field partner, Yvonne Parr. Ms. Parr lives in Kigali, Rwanda with her husband Les and 14 adopted children. She is currently in the United States for three months and will be visiting with us for a week in March! She has counseled with and mentored most of our 45 students and in most cases knows them at a deep level.
What: We encourage you to attend this casual Meet and Greet with Yvonne Parr! It will be a casual come-and-go atmosphere with a brief introduction in the beginning. Feel free to stop by and meet Yvonne, hear about what Global Capacity is doing in Rwanda and how our partnership is improving the lives of many people. If you want to hear first-hand about what life is like for our students in Rwanda, this evening is for you! Snacks and beverages will be provided.
When: Monday, March 11, 2013
Time: 7:00 - 9:00 PM
Where: Fellowship Hall at Calvary Baptist Church, 1250 University Drive, State College
An RSVP is not required but will help us plan for snacks and beverages. Please take a moment here to tell us if you will be attending or not. Feel free to bring as many people as you want. Sorry, childcare will not be provided.
