Progress Report & Accountability for June & July 2007
By Felicite Rwemalika | Executive Director, AKWOS
Background
AKWOS (Association of Kigali Women in Sports) is a non governmental organization incorporated in Kigali, Rwanda. In May 2007, AKWOS received a grant from NIKE to support the goal of AKWOS which is to empower women and girls of Rwanda and the region through sports to better handle their social-economic, cultural and educational and health challenges. This is a programmatic and financial report for the first two months of the project.
With Nike funding and the donations of generous GlobalGiving donors we have been able to fund our important work. Read the attached report to Nike on our work these past few months and see the budget for our work to date. In October we will have our grand finale event!
Thank you for your support!
