Work for the Water 2011

The Gazelle Foundation is excited to announce Work for the Water 2011, a fundraising trip to Burundi this summer for any person interested in going to see first-hand the completed water projects.

Travel dates are set for June 28th – July 10th with nine nights spent in Burundi. The itinerary will include working on the water projects, visiting with the citizens that the projects have affected, and numerous opportunities to see various parts of the country – including the home of Gilbert Tuhabonye, coffee plantations, work of other non-profits, and the memorial site from the fateful day in October 1993 where he escaped fire and death.

More details are available on the REGISTRATION PAGE. Information sessions will be held on Tuesday, March 8th at 7:00 PM and Saturday, March 12th at 10:00 AM in the RunTex Riverside Annex building.
