On Wednesday 24th March, Kibarouna NGO launched their yearly activities by celebrating Mother’s Day with a brunch  held at Saint Joseph Monastery in Bhorsaf.

More than ninety elderly attended and were warmly welcomed with hugs and flowers by Kibarouna members, volunteers and dear friends.  

Two messages for the precious elderly mothers: Firstly “Thank You for your devotion and sacrifice as mothers, and secondly “Your role doesn’t stop here. As grandmothers you remain actively involved in raising your grandchildren especially at difficult times when they will turn to you as a source of unconditional love and guidance”.

With happiness filling the air, Kibarouna members look forward to successfully planning for the upcoming events of year 2010-2011: Weekly club activities on Wednesdays, monthly trips, “Grandparents Day” in June and the “Summer Camp”. All the activities aim at enhancing the elderly citizens’ social interaction and eliminating social isolation.

Special thanks go to Kibarouna’s volunteers and supporters for their generous contributions in many different ways.

For Kibarouna NGO,
