Best Wishes from Ben : Ghana and United Kingdom.


Dear All, Good morning!! It's been a long time. I hope you are fine and getting more good news from your projects across the world? We are doing well here in London. We are just taking care and watching as the Credit Crunch looms. How are the friends in Belarus? I check the website to see some of the recent developments. Please, extend my greetings to all the A Ray of Hope members. Congratulations for their good work and success. Regards, Benjamin Ofori


The photograph tells a story which I remember well from 2000. When we visited this orphanage in Belarus several children came up to Ben and took his hand - they then spat on their hands and rubbed his in an attempt to get his hands clean as they had never seen anyone with that colour of skin before. It was both moving and poignant. On this visit Benjamin once hid in the toilet to avoid having to eat anymore food. A wonderful visit fondly remembered by Benjamin and his friends in Belarus.
