Today I visited the Cambodia Landmine Museum and Relief Center which was established in 1997 by former Khmer Rouge child soldier turned de-miner, Aki Ra. The original museum displayed his collection of landmines, bombs and other UXO material that Aki Ra cleared from around the country since the end of the war. In 2001, a Canadian relief organization partnered with Aki Ra to create the CLMMRF NGO that was able to construct a new museum for his growing collection of decommissioned weapons as well as a relief facility for dozens of children affected by landmines, poverty and physical handicaps.
All museum donations go directly to support and educate the children who now call the museum home. Aki Ra says, “I want to make my country safe for my people.”

Check out this trailer for a movie about Aki and his life as a child soldier and his work now which has resulted in the removal of more than 50,000 mines – many of which he probably planted himself.
Wow what an amazing individual! Can’t wait to hear who you give to tomorrow!
I am confused why you didn’t write his full name in the title, but did so in the article.
I get the way Reed has done it for a year, but perhaps his cause could be served, better, if his name”Ra” was written out fully, as it is in your post.
That’s just the format that the Year of Giving has followed. Full names generally are not given at all unless they are public figures, like Aki.
