BUSC have recently been approached and agreed to support a local charity Comfort, Rwanda & Congo.
Comfort Rwanda & Congo began as Comfort Rwanda in 1999, five years after the 1994 genocide, with the aim of supporting their Rwandan partners in their endeavour to support the recovery of genocide survivors in Rwanda.
The remit of the charity has continued to expand and although this remains the main focus the charity also addresses wider issues of poverty in Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Since establishing the charity in 1999 Comfort have helped to build a new school along with many other projects designed to support and improve the lives of local people. The charity are now focusing their attentions on a new programme designed to take kids off the street. With this in mind they will be shipping out football boots and strips to help support these young people.
With this in mind we would ask that anyone who would like to support this cause hand in any old football kit to the club over the period of June. This is another opportunity to not only clean out some cupboards & drawers but also support and improve the lives of those less fortunate than ourselves. Once again we thank our members for their continued support.
