Nineteen years ago, on July 4, 1994, the 100-day Rwandan Tutsi genocide ended.
Langley-based Grace Rwanda plans to mark the anniversary with reverence and joyful renewal.
The public is invited to join the charitable organization for an evening of celebration, featuring traditional Rwandan dinner, sharing from guest speakers, a silent auction and a live Rwandan dance performance.
Proceeds from ticket sales and donations made during the event will go toward the Grace Rwanda literacy project “Let’s Read Together,” and its partner bible societies and their trauma healing project in Rwanda.
Date: Thursday, July 4
Location: Fraserview Hall, 8240 Fraser Street, Vancouver
