Village of Hope You might have heard of this project, since it's been in the media a lot since Christmas. It's a joint initiative between Oxfam and the Daily Mirror, designed to provide long-term aid to the Rwandan village of Nyamikamba ('the village of hope'). It's a brilliant concept, because donors get to see exactly how their money is spent by the villagers, and learn about the personalities and struggles of each of the community members. Tragically, one of the women in the village has just died in childbirth: a fate shared by one in ten expectant mothers in Rwanda.
