I am very grateful for this radio station that is allowing the truth of Burundi to cover the Northeast Coast of America as well as the Internet partners around the world.”

                 Dr. Paul Taylor, Top Advisor for the East Coast of America

Dr. Paul Taylor, Top Advisor for the East Coast of America, to the Honorary Ambassador at Large for Republic of Burundi, Dr. Rivers, has done a tremendous job bringing positive exposure to Republic of Burundi from the east coast.

Dr. Taylor has put together the Burundi Africa Summits in the Boston area and people have attended from the eastern region of United States. A major organization has been birth from these summits called, Tipping the Nation. This organization will bring great changes to the country of Burundi. We will be hearing more from this organization in the near future.

Besides making connections through his Burundi Africa Summits, Dr. Taylor has also taken Generational Solutions, a problem solving organization, into Burundi. Rivers said, “All of this positive exposure has originated from the east coast because of Dr. Taylor’s hard work and desire to help Burundi. He has really impressed the government of Burundi with his teachings and mentality to empower the Burundian people to solve their own problems. This is what their government is looking for, leadership and training to reinforce their desire to help their own country. We will continue to have a strong, positive presence on the east coast of America because of Dr. Taylor.”

BOSTON CELTICS CHAMPIONS IN ANOTHER WAY

Dr. Rivers said, “We are very grateful that a high ranking organization such as the Boston Celtics have their heart in the right place.” The Boston Celtics currently have the top record in the NBA. Rivers goes on to say, “Among the youth of Burundi they are in first place as well. Any professional sports organization that looks beyond their community to help the world is truly a championship organization. The 1^st Lady of Burundi’s Buntu Foundation is very thankful for the goodness of the Boston Celtics in looking beyond their borders to help the children of Burundi. We wish to extend a heart-felt, thank you.”

During Dr. Rivers’ visit to Boston, he was will taken care of by people in the Celtics Organization. They did an outstanding job to make his visit a success. Rivers said, “I was very impressed by Matt Meyersohn, Director of Community Relations. He represented the Boston Celtics in an excellent way. As an Ambassador that travels the world it is great when you deal with a professional such as Mr. Meyersohn.” Dr. Rivers also observed the hard work of Ashley Earle as she prepared the way for his visit. He said, “She treated the country of Burundi with respect, from the moment we contacted her regarding this visit, and I want to thank her.”

Dr. Paul Taylor, Top Advisor for the East Coast of America, to the Honorary Ambassador, Dr. Rivers, was very instrumental in putting this project together for the Republic of Burundi. “He worked hard making the connection with the Boston Celtics Organization. He is one of the best men I know. He has a true heart for Burundi and is putting his words into actions.” Said Rivers.
