When children are given the opportunity to create, imagine and express themselves, they discover new talents and develop skills that stay with them for life 💛

For children in rural communities in Africa access to creative activities provides a safe space to learn, explore, connect with others and enjoy a childhood 💫

🌍 Celebrating Environment Day at Step Up Summer Camp! 🌿

We were joined by the incredible Bird Watching Club, who brought along binoculars and introduced us to the amazing birds in our surroundings 🦜🔍

Did you know? Rwanda is home to over 700 bird species. We learnt about how birds migrate, about their different shapes & colours and their varying bird calls 🎶

Step Up Summer Camp in Rwanda has begun! 🇷🇼🩵

For many children in Gashora, school holidays means lost learning opportunities and an increased risk of not returning to school 📚

That’s why Step Up Summer Camp matters 🌱 It supports children’s education, strengthening English language, exploring creativity and life skills, and encouraging learning in a productive environment 📝

Looking forward to working with the The Jonathan Foundation and GS Dihiro school.

Today, on World Refugee Day, we are celebrating dreams ✨

Behind every refugee child is a dream and a story, a future waiting to be written.

At The Step Up, we support young people in refugee and host communities, helping turn classrooms into spaces of hope, where children can learn for a brighter future 📚

Education does more than teach lessons. It brings hope and opportunity 🌎
