Exciting news from New Generation - they now own their own piece of land, in Bujumbura, on which they will soon start building a new, permanent home. Building will take place in phases over the next few years, with the first phase seeing New Generation's daily activities moving to the site. This will hopefull be completed by the end of the year.
Since Dieudonne Nahimana began providing support to a few children living on the streets of Bujumbura over 20 years ago, New Generation has always had a nomadic existence. Recent years have seen the project find a home in Bujumbura, but the site they rented was always that - a temporary home.
So this news, thanks to the hugely generous support of many Street Action supporters, is so exciting for the long term security and stability of New Generation. And it will mean that a third of their budget, currently being spent on renting a site, can be used to help the children within the project, and reach out to more children on the streets of Bujumbura.
Thanks again. To all of you who have regularly supported New Generation, through Street Action, for many years. And those who are newer supporters and have provided substantial sums to make this possible.
We are truly grateful.
