I want to help Compassion UK to build new homes in Rwanda for mothers and babies coming through Compassion's child survival program.
A home should be a place of refuge. For 34 families in Rwanda this couldn’t be further from the truth. Each one of them lives in a shelter that struggles to remain standing in heavy rains or strong winds. Many of them go to sleep not knowing if the structure will collapse on top of them.
Now imagine raising a newborn in this environment.With all of the 34 families living in rural locations and unable to find the income necessary to cover the rent of their existing houses, the rising costs of building materials makes it impossible for them to change their situations on their own.
Unfair....Unacceptable...... Whatever we call it, we know it’s not right. Together, we will change this.
For the cost of just £3,249, each family will have their own three-bedroom home, containing a sitting room, with another smaller building housing the bathroom, toilet and kitchen.
With your support, together we will empower these families with a home that will transform their lives.
Thank you!
