Cheltenham Borough Council
We would like to thank the staff at Cheltenham Borough Council in the UK for holding an office fundraiser and donating FRW 100,000 to Tabara Africa.

This helped to pay for the start-up costs and registration fees that allowed us to become a fully registered local Rwandan NGO in March 2009.

Westwood Collegiate
Thanks go to all of the students and staff at Westwood Collegiate in Canada for their contribution of FRW 545,000 which allowed us to pay basic medical insurance (mutuelle santé) for our members in 2009.

This will ensure medical treatment for single parent families in Kigali for the next year.
