A message from Orphan Support Africa:

Orphan Support Africa works to restore the future of children orphaned by HIV/AIDS throughout Sub-Saharan Africa.  We partner with community-based organizations to create sustainable, self-run enterprises whose revenues provide these children with comprehensive care and the tools they need to become self-reliant adults. Currently operating in Malawi, Tanzania and Uganda, OSA has reached out to over 55,000 orphans and vulnerable children through partnership with 44 community-based organizations.

We look forward to sharing with you the experiences, the successes, and the renovated mission of a wonderful organization based here in Philadelphia. Together, we can create a major shift in humanitarian aid that empowers those most able, most invested, and most eager to nurture these orphans and vulnerable children to live a healthy life. Please RSVP to kristin@orphansupportafrica.org. Check us out online at www.orphansupportafrica.org, and “Like” us on Facebook for all the latest details!

Hell on Wheels: (documentary 2007, TRT: 89 min) Saturday, December 4
10:00pm

Hell on Wheels takes a from-the-trenches look at the dizzying clash of athleticism, exhibitionism, egos, politics and business that is modern-era roller derby. A group of hard-hitting Texas women overcome myriad obstacles in resurrecting and revamping the sport, only to find internal strife ripping the fledgling organization apart. Two leagues emerge from the clash, and what follows ignites an international roller derby revival. Shot over a five-year period by Bob Ray (Rock Opera) and Werner Campbell, Hell on Wheels was edited by award winning editor Conor O’Neill (Murderball, Word Wars, Capitalism: A Love Story) and features original music by …And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead.
