NAME: Stop Poverty in Rwanda [SPR]

REASON:We named our organization this because that is what we want to do, stop poverty in Rwanda.

We are doing this because we want to help people in Rwanda be able to afford:

Money Food Clothing Other Necessities

You should be informed about this issue because:

It affects the world

Tons of lived are lost every year

You should help stop this issue so that it won’t continue

Our plan is to:Raise donations.

We won’t do this all the time, because our long term plan will help raise donations

Our plan is to:Raise awareness

If we raise awareness, more people will know about this issue, making them want to donate too.

http://www.africaguide.com/charity.htm: Charity link to sign up any where in Africa

http://www.undp.org.rw/Poverty_Project3.html : Another email to ask if you can sign up

So far we have: Put donation boxes in all 8th and 7th grade

homerooms Put out announcements to put money in

the boxes Tried to contact someone to send our

money to Rwanda Raised about ¥500 so far We should be done with donations by

Wednesday, February 18th

This is important and we should care because:

If we can do our action plan, Rwanda won’t have such a low interest rate

If we don’t solve this problem now, it will get worse and worse

Others should do something because even one person will help make a difference.
