Ministers up the stakes on ‘One Dollar Campaign’
The pledge by Cabinet Ministers to each contribute at least USD 200 towards the ‘One Dollar Campaign,’ takes us another step closer to realizing the ‘Never Again’ vow. It is a bold step by the politicians full of meaning as it shows that a political will exists to deal with the plight of those orphaned by the Genocide. It is also a challenge for each one of us to play a part. The big question on most people’s minds after the just concluded Genocide Commemoration week was what next?Emotions have been high, tears have been shed, stories long buried have been unearthed and retold. Souls and consciences have been searched, with fresh commitments for healing and reconciliation also being made. We have felt the pain and anguish of the Genocide.
