Richard’s Rwanda is a group of American girls who are working together to support Rwandan girls’ education. We believe that every girl deserves the opportunity to go to school and have access to knowledge, challenges and rewards that come with education.
In 1994 there was a genocide in Rwanda and one million people were killed. Many children lost their parents and stopped attending school because they could not afford it. Richard’s Rwanda is helping 22 girls in Nyamata, Rwanda by supplying them with what they need in order to attend school. Eventually, we hope to build a library or learning center for the girls we are supporting and the next generations.
