Foundation Rwanda

I can summarize this text, saying that the photographer Jonathan Torogovnik went to Rwanda to help the children and their family . Since 2006 he started to raise the money for the children in the secondary school whose mothers were raped during the Rwandan genocide in 1994. Until now the organization has raised almost $500,000 and supported 150 families. Torgovnik , along with the foundation Rwanda co. Founder, Jules Shell travelled to Rwanda again in the summer to visit the families who benefit from the foundations work. Torogovnik was amazed to see how their lives changed to a good life after it was a bad and scary life. The author said that the project changed his life in many ways , and it gives him power and it gives a power to take action .

The summary of Wadi Wurayah

I can summarise this task by saying that the Municipality has more money to protect this natural place, because these days there are few natural places in Arab countries like waterfalls, and protected areas so the Wadi Wurayah area needs to have more care than it is getting now. For example, the Government must give Fujairah money and the Government and the Municipality of Fujairah must take care of these places.

90words

Main Idea

The main idea is we have to protect this area in many ways. The government must take care of the place by leaving it clean and safe.

Comment

I think that it is a nice place and I wish to have many places like it.
