Foundation visitors

Urukundo Director Jean Marie welcomed our visitors from the Segal Family Foundation: Sharonrose Msaki, program officer based in Tanzania, and Yvan Gatoto, program officer based in Rwanda and serving the African Great Lakes region.

Director Jean Marie (blue shirt) and Headmaster Viateur (white shirt) shared the honors of presenting Urukundo Learning Center to our guests. This was a first visit for Sharonrose and Yvan, so there was much to share.

The visit included the Learning Center, day care, dental clinic, farm, Sewing Center and, the best event of all, helping to serve lunch to the school children. They then had a relaxing visit to Mama’s new residence.

Before leaving, our administrative staff and visitors posed for a photo. In addition to Jean Marie, Oswalde and me, our visitors were joined by Juliette, third from left, who is head of human relations and vice president of the National Board, and Eric, on the right, office secretary and assistant to the director. Oswalde is both transportation director and National Board president.

Finally, we sent them off to their next destination with a warm drink in hand. We hope they will return soon.
