Group picture one of our Imana Kids Gala
In January of 2015, just a little over a year after Imana Kids had become an officially registered non-profit, we were faced with a dilemma: we had custody of several children who did not have a home when school was closed if they were ill or were just joining our program. Out of necessity, our first Love One Child Gala was held to raise the needed funds to provide a year's rent for our Sparrow's Nest Transition home.
Fast forward to our 8th Annual Gala as we have outgrown the basemen Galas of Cascio's Steakhouse, our needs within the program have stretched beyond rent money.
Join us this March 12th to be inspired by the story of resiliency of Clementine Wamariya, best-selling author, Yale grad, and genocide survivor. We'll raise funds for our dental clinic, a much-needed service among our students and community in Rwanda. Dine on custom fare with East Africa flavors, enjoy bidding on unique silent auction items and be sure to bring your friends. There will be plenty of room at the spacious Omaha Design Center as we reflect on the resiliency of our students and one another in this pandemic world.
