Partnering Groups
The following organizations are partners with catholicPittsburgh.org:
Suit-Kases-4-Kids
Four years ago a few LaRoche College Pacem in Terris students began a program for street kids in their home country, Rwanda. Umuryango now has 2 residential facilities for over 45 children, one in Gitarama and one in Butare. They also have a Cow Project providing fresh, whole milk for the youngsters each day.
These creative alums have arranged with the Rwandan embassy that any visiting Rwandan dignitary or guest will return home with at least one of the suit-Kases-4-Kids filled with clothing for Umuryango. They have clothes; they need cases.
Some of us have extra suitcases (carry on size only or duffle) sitting around unused. Until Easter Sunday(27 March) you can bring these donations to the campus ministry office at LaRoche College.
For further information, please call Sister Marilyn Bergt at 412-536-1053.
