A new team, our first film and what’s ahead - A Monthly Moment of Light - November 2025
Dear all,
After seven years of running workshops in schools and businesses, The Shining Light Project is now ready to share our work more widely than ever. And that begins with our very first newsletter!
(Almost) Introducing our Founding Team
We recently assembled a new team of fourteen people (yes, fourteen!) This is our founding team - a group of committed volunteers united by a simple goal: to spread ideas and tools that help positive change happen. We will introduce the team in the new year.
The first big milestone with this new team? We will be launching our first film: “It’s Never Too Late: The Story of Mama Arlene and Hope Made Real”
It tells the extraordinary story of Mama Arlene, who, in her seventies, built a home for 52 orphaned children following the Rwandan genocide. Today, at 96, she continues to lead Urukundo with love and purpose. The film is a reminder that age and circumstance are no barriers when life is centred on meaning, compassion, and the courage to act - stay tuned!
How can you spread the light this month?
This month, we’d love for you to share this newsletter with someone who might appreciate a small spark of light each month.
For now, thank you for being here and for being one of the very first members of this growing community.
With love,
Benjamin
