This year\u2019s event was attended by Marta Nawrocka, the wife of Polish President Karol Nawrocki, who took the opportunity to explore various exhibits from around the world, including Rwanda’s unique offerings.<\/p>\n

The SHOM Charity Bazaar, which highlights the best products from participating countries, raises funds for charitable initiatives supported by non-governmental organizations in Poland and abroad. <\/p>\n

This year, the event aimed to assist 17 organizations, including a Polish initiative that established a school for visually impaired children in Kibeho, Rwanda.<\/p>\n

Rwanda\u2019s booth featured a selection of its renowned products, including coffee, tea, baskets, and traditional crafts, which attracted a large crowd. <\/p>\n

Marta Nawrocka visited the Rwandan booth, where she was warmly welcomed by Rwanda\u2019s Ambassador to Poland, Prof. Shyaka Anastase, and his wife, Beata Shyaka. They took the opportunity to explain the significance of Rwanda\u2019s products and the country\u2019s rich culture.<\/p>\n

The event, which took place just ahead of Christmas, was also attended by children from a local kindergarten in the Siemiatycze district. <\/p>\n

Upon reaching the Rwandan booth, the children were greeted by Ambassador Shyaka and performed Christmas songs in Kinyarwanda, proudly waving Rwandan flags.<\/p>\n

Amb. Shyaka expressed his heartfelt appreciation to all those who contributed to showcasing Rwanda\u2019s cultural and artisanal treasures. <\/p>\n

He particularly thanked the children for bringing the spirit of Christmas to the event through their songs in Kinyarwanda, offering a glimpse of Rwanda\u2019s vibrant culture to attendees at the charity bazaar.<\/p>\n
