COLORADO WEST ESTATE PLANNING COUNCIL

For our winter membership meeting, we will have Mathias Mulumba speak about Father to the Fatherless International. 

A charitable and religious organization with the purpose of reaching out to the street children, orphans, single mothers, and widows of the world through education, nutrition, boarding, and fostering.  Through the use of international sponsors, children will be given the proper schooling, wholesome meals, opportunities to receive medication as needed, and a safe place to stay both day and night.  Widows, single mothers, and older street children will be given opportunities to learn vocational skills (such as welding, carpentry, and computers).  Literacy classes and other training courses will be given to anyone interested in the community. 

We will also have Susan P. Rounds present on "Family Dynamics & Intergenerational Conflict - Preserving Family Wealth & Harmony".
