A message from Rainbow of Magnolia Fountains of Life founder, Dariusz Stuj: A long time ago, I discovered that, for me, the real route to happiness was helping other people. It all began with a quote by the late John Paul II: “Each one of us, in some way, rubs against (the) hunger and poverty of others. We know how to share bread with those who don’t have it or those who have less than us. We know how to open our hearts to the needs of our brothers and sisters, who suffer as a result of poverty and scarcity. Sometimes they are ashamed of admitting it, hiding their hardship. One must discreetly give them a brotherly, helping hand.” My journey continued on missionary trips, with experiences that left their marks on my memory and heart. I felt blessed to be able to assist the poor and sick in Guyana, work in orphanages in Belarus and Poland, and serve homeless and drug-addicted people in St. Petersburg, Russia. Then, in 2007, I was given the opportunity to sponsor a few Maasai tribe children in a small village in southern Kenya. The more I learned about the village, the more I saw ways to help the community as a whole. But first, I was offered help, myself. The workers from my company, Rainbow of Magnolia Landscaping, all volunteered to donate a week’s wages to jump-start this new effort. Their enthusiasm enabled me to raise $20,000, making it possible to build a proper water system for the village, and to procure property for a future school. The Maasai community named our project, “Rainbow of Magnolia Fountains of Life.” And so, this enterprise was born. In the years that have followed, we have continued to support this original community, as well as branching out to several others. I hope that you have come to this website because you would like to join us. When you support Rainbow of Magnolia Fountains of Life, you make a donation not just to an organization but to a community of individuals all of whom also contribute to the same cause. We donate our skills, our time, and yes, also our own money. 100% of your donation goes to the work we perform. It doesn’t even go for travel expenses. This, we pay for ourselves. Materials and supplies are purchased in-country, further helping local economies. At Rainbow of Magnolia Fountains of Life, we believe in the power of human benevolence. We believe that we can help the world, one child at a time. Ways to make a contribution can be found at the bottom of this page. But I invite you to explore the other pages of this website, as well.
