Since that time I/we regularly check on what is happening with your awesome "Trampled Rose". We pass on to friends and acquaintances contacts to your website/videos etc. Though our own efforts and funds are entirely focused on western Kenya at an orphanage "Dago Dala Hera", we care for your project very much. We very much believe (as our Canadian Stephen Lewis says) that Africas future to a very large extent depends on the emancipation of its women folk. My wife Lorna, presently is in Kenya with two nieces, both 13 years of age. In short, it is proving to be a life changing experience for these girls. My particular reason for writing you at this time has to do with the recent Ethiopian government moves to restrict the social/political operating perimeters of NGOs. Considering the nature of your efforts in Ethiopia, how or if you are affected by this concerns me.(?) And is there any specific thing that we abroad can do in support of "Trampled Rose'in this regard? All the best and a Happy New Year Paul Janz Hi Becky
