 The Hope Rwanda (100 Days of Hope)

If you miss out of the Gorilla naming ceremony then join other to give the Rwanda people hope and happiness as they celebrate the 100 days of hope. This event is always held to help the people of Rwanda overcome the horrors of the genocides experienced in 1994. This is truly a global effort, as churches and private parties around the world raise money, and others travel to Rwanda to help hands-on. Join the event and give joy and hope to many.
