{{A New Zealand woman, Vhari Campbell will arrive in Rwanda to act as a substitute mother to orphans and help them with their homework, feeding the smaller ones, cooking and cleaning.}}<\/p>\n
Vhari will be in Rwanda by September 30 ready to start work on October 1 and she will be around for the whole of October.<\/p>\n
A mother of two, Vhari will spend a month in a children\u2019s orphanage in Rwanda, in a placement arranged by the Global Volunteer Network.<\/p>\n
The network is a New Zealand-based company and will place Vhari with a Christian-based project. <\/p>\n
Vhari says,\u201cThis is something I have wanted to do for a long time.”<\/p>\n
\u201cI knew Africa was where I wanted to go, so when I came across this company it was exactly what I was looking for. I don\u2019t know where I will be going, but I have already been reading books about Rwanda.\u201d<\/p>\n
To help raise the money she needs, Vhari is going on a marathon sponsored cycle on June 9 and 10. She will be accompanied by two friends, Morna Wilson-Smith and Laura Morley who will also be sponsored.<\/p>\n
The cyclists will cover 112 miles over the two days. They will leave Fettercairn and go over the Cairn o\u2019 Mount to Banchory, then on to Ballater and Braemar.<\/p>\n
After an overnight stay in Braemar, the three will go on through Spittal of Glenshee to Kirriemuir, then on to Edzell before returning to Fettercairn.
\nVhari (44) works in the Fettercairn Hotel, the Ramsay Arms.<\/p>\n
The Ramsay will be the venue for a traditional music night on Friday, February 17, when donations will be accepted towards her trip and the Rwandan project.<\/p>\n
Vhari is mum to Mary (15) and Chrissie (12) who both attend Mearns Academy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
