My name is Robin Citak and I serve on the Board of Directors for RAN.
I first met Temesgen Temtem in 2018 on a trip to Addis Ababa to visit Raey School. Makeda Mulugeta, Founder and President of RAN, and I went for a home visit. Temesgen was only four years old, very shy and non-verbal without any preschool attendance. Because of the vision of RAN and the present need, he was sponsored in 2018 and has now completed Pre-K and Kindergarten at Raey School. Congratulations to him and the other kindergarten graduates!
Demoze, Temesgen’s sister, would like to express her gratitude for the opportunity her brother has had to complete kindergarten and receive promotion to the first grade. She is also very thankful for the opportunity to complete the 6th grade and receive her promotion to 7th grade. Through the generous efforts of RAN, Demoze was able to continue to receive a quality education in a private Christian school where she has ranked in the top 30% of her class.
This year, we at RAN want to thank you for your generous outpouring of love in both financial and prayer commitments this past 2021. We are fully aware that times are difficult on everyone and your outpouring of gifts and love has made a difference in the lives of these children.
At this year-end, would you consider a financial donation to RAN so that we can continue to provide education, support, textbooks, and two meals daily to these children? They are working diligently and have big dreams for their future. Along with us, help them realize their dreams this next year. Your support is valuable and is changing lives.
Lastly, we extend to you each a Merry Christmas this 2021. May you be blessed beyond measure and may God be near to you and your families in the coming year.
“Whoever welcomes one of these little children in my name welcomes Me…” Mark 9:37
