The Waterloo Region Inclusion Film Series presents:
Emmanuel's Gift
An event hosted by Facile Waterloo Region, in partnership with AFRO: African Family Revival Organiation, and with thanks to our Presenting Sponsor, Menno S Martin Contractor Ltd.
About Us: The Waterloo Region Inclusion Film Series screens films that will inspire, model, or challenge our thinking about what inclusion means. It is a chance for the community to come together and enjoy a film while considering what it means to be included. The Waterloo Region Inclusion Films Series is hosted by, and in support of, Facile Waterloo Region.
About the Film: Narrated by Oprah Winfrey, "Emmanuel's Gift" tells the powerful and passionate story of a disabled orphan, Emmanuel Ofosu Yeboah from Ghana, who has risen above abject poverty and a severe physical challenge to become a hero and inspiration to people around the world. His first stunning act of heroism was riding a bike across Ghana on one leg, in order to eradicate his country's negative perception of disabilities. This remarkable feat was just the first of many and his awe-inpsiring journey awakened the spirit of his fellow Ghanaians and countless others throughout the world.
