The Rhino Fund is an attempt to raise $2000 for Kenyan children through the organizations of ANPPCAN and Huruma Children’s Home.  I had initially planned to just send money over to support some of their various programs.  After discussing with Dr. Onyango (ANPPCAN) and Mama Zipporah (Huruma) though, we decided this would not be the most fruitful way to invest this fund.

One of the goals of The World Awaits is to partner and empower as opposed to just sending money.  Therefore, the money raised through the Rhino Fund will go towards sending the first team of volunteers to Kenya.  This team will work directly with ANPPCAN and Huruma to help meet their needs and achieve some of their long-term goals.  If you think you might be interested in joining this team, please click here.

The window of opportunity to raise these funds is quickly closing.  We have until September 15th 2008 to raise the remaining $1370!  If you would like to support this fund, please make a pledge!  I’m confident that it will contribute to changed lives.  Not only to the children involved, but to the volunteers as well.
