Sarafina.
My name is Sarafina. I’m 18 years old from Rwanda. Helping the needy has always been my dream from when I was young. Baking bread came as calling that I could not resist. It has fulfilled my dream and every time we distribute bread to the hungry children my heart gets filled with joy. I love this project because the skill of Baking will remain with me forever. As a young girl I feel empowered.
Clementine
Clementine, I’m 31 years old from Rwanda. I didn’t know that one day I would be able to bake bread! Everyday I am proud of myself and of the people who shared their skills of baking with me. I thank the lady from America Ayelet for thinking about building an oven for us. We have been wounded from the wars in our country and the bakery is our healing home. We can not thank you enough. We do not only bake bread for ourselves but for the entire community. We get to share the love through bread and buns.
Mwamini
My name is Mwamini Theresa from Congo! I’m grateful for being part of the team baking bread for life. The bread has been life saving and to be honest, I have been saved by bread. I do not know where I would be if I was not part of the bakery. A lot can happen to us as refugees in a country that is not our home. I used to get involved in activities that are not appropriate so I could have food but the day I joined the bakery project I see myself changed and I pray that we will continue baking bread because it has been life changing for me and my fellow refugees.
Claudine
My name is Claudine, 34 years old from Congo. It is with love that you brought the bakery program to us. My life is not the same, I’m now able to support my family with bread. The hungry children can at least have a bun and wait for a meal that is served once in a day without feeling too much pain. This honestly brings me such joy and relief from the hurt I feel when our children cry because of hunger.
