&lt;br /&gt;Event Description: Join Akilah on a Metropolitan Safari!

Metropolitan Safari is a cocktail party and fundraiser for the Akilah Institute for Women in Kigali, Rwanda. (www.AkilahInstitute.org) Akilah transforms the lives of young women by empowering them with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to find meaningful employment and to serve as leaders in their communities. Upon completion of the
 three-year program, they will receive a Diploma in Leadership &amp;amp; 
Hospitality Studies, which will enable them to obtain jobs in the 
fastest growing sector of the Rwandan economy.

Two of our students, Anita and Gisele, have made the journey from Rwanda to the United States for the first time to meet supporters and share their experiences at Akilah. Come meet them and celebrate their journey during a special evening in D.C. and learn more about the work of Akilah while enjoying cocktails and appetizers!

All the proceeds of the evening will support the Akilah Scholarship Fund.

&lt;br /&gt;Event Description: http://architectureforhumanity.org/events/2010-10-15-design-like-you-give-a-damn-live

Architects are designing in the communities they live in around the world. Though they bring technical expertise to the work, they often lack community development skills that are important to effecting change on the ground. Now is the time to begin training architects to become community developers and leaders. At Design Like You Give a Damn: LIVE! we will share the tools and knowledge needed to bring architects to the decision-making table.

Be a catalyst for sustainable community development. Join us to share your knowledge and participate in a showcase of innovative design and one-on-one workshops.</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.google.com/calendar/event?eid=a3FmMm1hZDE4bmpzbDRmYW9hN2szbTBwM2sgNnM5YWVjbnBqbGQ0M3JoY2Fja2VsdjFzcm9AZw' title='alternate'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/6s9aecnpjld43rhcackelv1sro%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic/kqf2mad18njsl4faoa7k3m0p3k'/><author><name>AfHdc General</name></author></entry><entry><id>http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/6s9aecnpjld43rhcackelv1sro%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic/7kdlho081ibijascol6cggd44s</id><published>2010-09-07T20:57:31.000Z</published><updated>2010-10-13T00:47:57.000Z</updated><category scheme='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#kind' term='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#event'/><title type='html'>Building Livable Communities: Creating a Common Agenda</title><summary type='html'>When: Wed Sep 22, 2010 2pm to 5pm&amp;nbsp;

Hello all,

It was a great discussion on 11/19 to explore how we could apply our chapter&amp;#39;s mission statement locally.  From our discussion, we primarily hit on the following topics of Education and Homelessness.  Both of these topics we have some experience in the past and we use it to our advantage.  Our discussion seemed to hit on the area of Education and seeing if we could focus our energy as a group taking our discussion further.
The next steps I see are to define the needs and to actively respond to the need keeping in mind our capabilities (in respect to availability and skillsets).  The initiative can start off with being an activity that is one day or weekend such as painting walls or general improvement and over time can develop further.  It really depends on what the needs are so there may be a little research that needs to happen (ie:  which school?  what are their needs?  what can we do?)

How about getting together again on December 17th, 6:30pm @ RTKL office (same office is before)?  From this meeting, together we can come up with a plan of action for our local initiative focused on Education.  Between now and then, I would like to ask the following:

1.  Think about schools you may already know about and come prepared (or send a reply to all to this email) to describe the needs that you may have observed already.

2.  Let me know if you would be interested in leading this effort.  There&amp;#39;s a lot of potential and energy here, now we need someone who are interested in keeping the momentum going.  This individual would organize the effort and group.  They wouldn&amp;#39;t and shouldn&amp;#39;t be doing this on their own as you have the resources of this group (both ideas and manpower).  Feel free to contact me if you have questions and what this may specifically entail and/or if you are interested in this.

I&amp;#39;m really looking forward to how this develops.  Feel free to use this email change as a means of discussion to share ideas and discoveries.

Best,
Joe
