From 12-13 August 2012, the Gatumba Refugees Survivors Foundation is hosting the 8th annual Gatumba Massacre Memorial Gathering to commemorate the memory of the hundreds of innocent Congolese refugees, who were brutally attacked at the Gatumba Refugee Camp in Gatumba, Burundi. This event is open to the public and will be held at the National 4-H Youth Conference Center, Aiton Auditorium, located at 7100 Connecticut Avenue Chevy Chase, Maryland 20185 (just outside Washington, D.C.). The purpose of this event is to request justice, to provide healing to those affected by the massacre, to draw public awareness to the ongoing plight of those still suffering in the Congo and to promote a spirit of reconciliation.
