Dear Everyone,
Because of your support, "Gabriel's Inferno" is #101 on the USAToday Bestselling list and "Gabriel's Rapture" is #136. Thank you.
I enjoy hearing from readers, especially about their work with various charities. Recently, a reader shared with me the fact that her choir was raising money for the Kinamba Project. The Kinamba project is a primary school for children in Rwanda who cannot afford to school. Relying on donations, they provide everything necessary for the children, including food. Some of the children receive their primary nutrition from the school, because their families are in poverty. Some of the children are suffering with HIV/Aids.
This project is an attempt to provide aid and education in a country that was torn apart by genocide. You can find out more about Kinamba on their website. Please consider giving.
Another reader contacted me about a fundraiser she is involved in for To Write Love On her Arms. This organization provides support to those suffering from depression, addiction, self-injury, and suicide. They also provide financial support for medical care and treatment. The organization began with this story.
In addition to the poetry of the story, I was struck by the contrast behind the desperation of a woman writing hateful things about her self on her own skin, versus the act of writing words of love on those same arms. Replace the self-loathing with love. Please consider giving.
All the best, everyone, and thank you for your continued support,
SR

I spoke to the foundation founder about your support - she asked me to say how thrilled and grateful she was. Any little makes a huge difference to the childrens' quality of life. Thank you again. God bless x

Please pass along my very best greetings and my admiration for the work she and her team are doing.
I'm hoping to continue raising awareness that will translate into more volunteers and donations for their good work,

Your books are now on order at the local Chapters in Vancouver B.C, (as I raved about them until the manager ordered them for the public). On your way to # 1!!!
Your work is great, dear Sylvain. It deserves a higher place, but we all know the better writers are not the most read. Thanks for your advices. I´m donor in MSF, Save the children, Greenpeace and Intermon Oxfam. I admire your work in the benefit of other organizations not so known.
Thanks for all ;)
Thanks everyone! I appreciate it.All best,
SR
So pleased to see you mention TWLOHA. It is a great organization that is close to my heart. I love to see you spreading the love through your designated charites- such an inspiration.'Everybody can be great...because anybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.' ~ Martin Luther King, Jr
