Canon David Clunie, left, rector of St. Bartholemew Church in Ottawa, poses with Peg Herbert, founder of Help Lesotho, and King Letsie III of Lesotho at the 5th Anniversary celebration and fundraiser for Help Lesotho, held at the University of Otttawa Nov. 3.
The organization has raised over $3.6 million for programs that have helped 9,000 orphans, youth leaders, and grandmothers in the small South African nation.
For the past five years, St. Bartholemew’s has supported 16 girls in a hostel in Lesotho, one of the poorest countries in the world.
