April-June 2019 Part of our Peace Builder leadership program is an introduction to fundraising. To help pay for their trip to Rwanda, our eight Peace Builders have been conducting a crowdfunding campaign. They've established a website, filmed video appeals, shared their campaign with friends and families, and written thank-you notes to donors. There's still time to donate!
