The reigning School of Finance and Baking’s, beauty pageant, Amanda Ingeli, is organising a fund - raising event, whose proceeds will be donated to Abatanga orphanage home based in Gikondo, in the centre of Kigali.

In an exclusive interview with the New Times, Ingeli said, the event  was aimed at helping the Children who lost their parents care at a tender stage.

This will be done through a fundraising concert, expected to take place on Saturday 19 at the school campus.

The Abatangana orphanage, accommodates different children from all walks of life in the Kigali city.

According to INgeli, the concert will attract different local artists, including (KGB), Ezra, Miss JOJO, MC TINO. " I am working with a group of young people called ‘React’ who are also determined to make a difference in the community,” she says.

She also added that they expect to do this kind of concert every year for different orphanage homes.

"My wish is to start with different orphanages near the school campus,” INgeli added.

INgeli further said that it is important for Rwandan people to know that being a ‘Miss’ is not enough, you have to do some charity work as a commitment to your society.

"Besides it has been my desire to help the orphans because I hate seeing children in pain,” she said.
