Sonrise Ophanage and School



On the way back from West Province we travelled through Musanze, North Province. A stop here a Sonrise Ophanage and School was a must for me. Bridge 2 Rwanda was the founding organization for Sonrise Orphanage, home and school to some 1500 orphans originally from the genocide. They now have added a secondary school to the primary.

Dale Dawson is founder of Bridge 2 Rwanda (http://www.bridge2rwanda.com/ ) and a personal acquiantance of the Rwandan Minister of Agriculture, the Honourable Dr. Agnes Kalibata. It was thru Dale and subsequently thru Dr. Kalibata that I was given the opportunity to be in Rwanda as a volunteer dairy advisor.
