Today, on the International Day of Non-Violence, which also marks Mahatma Gandhi's birthday, we reflect on his words: "Poverty is the worst form of violence." At RAS, we believe education is the path out of poverty. Take Samuel, for example, who was once living on the streets but now thrives in school after joining our Center in Rwanda. It all begins with your kindness and support. Your donations make this possible. 🌟 🔗 Sponsor a child like Samuel for just $38 a month. Your kindness means so much. 👉 https://lnkd.in/gtXb9NDN #InternationalDayOfNonViolence #EndPoverty #EducationForAll #RiseAbove #SupportChildren #EmpowerThroughEducation #RisingAbovetheStorms

At the center, students receive counseling, nourishing meals, tutoring, access to computer labs, and participate in extracurricular activities like soccer and games. Every step our walkers take helps empower these children to overcome their challenges. Join us by donating, supporting a walker, or spreading the word! 🥾🚶🚶♂️ 👉 👉 Join us: https://lnkd.in/gBf-96HK #WalkToRise #EmpowerThroughEducation #RisingAbovetheStorms #SupportEducation #ChangingLives #RiseAbove
