River’s Promise is planning a return trip to Rwanda and you are invited to travel with us. The exact dates have not been finalized but the trip will provide about 7 days on the ground in Rwanda between Thanksgiving & Christmas. On this trip, we will be delivering Christmas presents to orphans, doing a presentation to pay for 2011 school fees, seeing a harvest from our new agricultural project, meeting genocide orphans, visiting a Pygmy village. There will be plenty of time to soak in the culture and experience the “Land of a Thousand Hills”.
The price including travel, meals, lodging, ground transportation is just around $3500. Jimmy Lakey will be on this trip so you will get to experience Rwanda through his eyes. Email info@riverspromise.com to receive more information.

In addition to our general donation tracks that allow you to “Send An Orphan To School” and “Buy A Bed”, River’s Promise is excited to expand our giving opportunities to allow for “sponsorship” of an individual orphan in Rwanda. By sponsoring a specific child, you will have the opportunity to correspond, watch their development, & even visit the child in Africa.
In addition to the financial support, sponsors are encouraged to communicate with their children and (if possible) visit them. This will establish a lasting relationship that goes far beyond simply meeting physical needs. This relationship will encourage the orphan and immeasurably grow their confidence and self-worth. For just $35 per month, your sponsorship through River’s Promise will provide the following:
* Education (Sponsored children attend school as their school fees, school supplies, textbooks, & uniforms are provided.)
* Health care (Sponsored children are educated about hygiene and general health and have access to Doctor and medicines when sick)
* Social development (Sponsored children have access to sports, music, & native dancing. Children with special emotional needs can receive counseling)
* Spiritual development (Children receive a Bible and are taught to live a life of hope & happiness through a relationship with Jesus Christ.)
Please consider sponsoring an orphan through “River’s Promise”. Email info@RiversPromise.com for additional information. A child is waiting on you.
