A few weeks ago, we had the privilege of welcoming Randy Haykin, Founder of Gratitude Network , to our home in Rwanda.

As part of his Journey of Gratitude to witness the work of Gratitude Network Fellows in their local communities, Randy stepped beyond the boardroom and into the places where change becomes tangible.

He sat and interact with children we serve. He listened to families. He visited the homes of program participants. And, for a moment, the numbers and programs gave way to something more powerful: people, stories, and possibility.

For us, the visit was deeply meaningful. Our Executive Director, Augustin Iyamuremye Nshuti , completed the Gratitude Network Fellowship in 2024, carrying that experience forward into the leadership and growth of Hope of Family.

We are proud to be part of 300+ global community that believes lasting change begins with courageous local leadership, strong organizations, and a deep commitment to the communities we serve.

This week, we are especially proud to see 𝟭,𝟰𝟬𝟬+ 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗿𝗲𝗻 across the two sectors where we work stepping into a new school year equipped with the materials they need to learn, participate, and belong.

For children growing up in vulnerable families, a school bag, uniform, shoes, books, and other basic learning materials can mean more than supplies. It is a quiet reminder that they belong, that their education matters, and that their future is worth investing in.

As they return to school prepared, we are reminded of what meaningful change looks like: 𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗮 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗽𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗹.....and this is what we are here for!

A new chapter begins.

We are proud to announce the extension of Hope of Family’s holistic intervention to 𝗖𝘆𝗲𝘇𝗮 𝗦𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿, Muhanga District, bringing our commitment to reducing extreme family poverty through strong and efficient children’s education to a new community.

We begin this journey with 150 households, embarking on a three-year partnership built around one shared ambition: stronger families, brighter futures, and greater opportunities for children and youth.

Our family centered approach goes beyond addressing immediate needs. We work with families to strengthen livelihoods, support children’s education, empower young people, and remove the barriers that keep children from reaching their full potential.

This expansion marks another step in our journey to reach more families, more children, and more young people with opportunities that can transform their futures.

Cyeza, we are ready.
Let’s build, grow and transform together.
Because when a family becomes stronger, a child’s future becomes brighter.

Cyeza is next. The journey starts now.

𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗝𝗨𝗦𝗧 𝗟𝗜𝗞𝗘 𝗧𝗛𝗔𝗧, 𝗪𝗘 𝗦𝗔𝗜𝗗: 𝗕𝗬𝗘-𝗕𝗬𝗘 𝗩𝗔𝗖𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘. 🎭⚽🎨📚

For the past three months, our children have had more than a holiday. They have had a stage to discover who they are, develop what they can do, and dream about what they can become.

Through our Talent Detection Program, thousands of children from the community came together to learn, create, practice and express themselves across four vibrant areas: football, traditional dance, reading & storytelling, and drawing & art.

𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝗻 𝗰𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗱𝗮𝘆, 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲.

What followed was a celebration of talent, confidence, creativity and possibility. From the energy of football to the rhythm of traditional dance, from stories brought to life to art born from imagination, our children showed us that when given the right space, talent does not wait to be discovered. It simply needs an opportunity to shine.
For us, this was never just about keeping children occupied during the holidays.
It was about creating safe spaces where children can explore their potential, build confidence, nurture creativity and discover new possibilities for their future.
Thousands gathered to celebrate them. And as the new academic year begins, we send every child forward with one message:
𝗞𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴. 𝗞𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴. 𝗞𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗱𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴. 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱.

Here’s to a new academic year filled with curiosity, courage and endless possibility.

Bye-bye vacance. Hello, new beginnings.

𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗜𝗙 𝗣𝗟𝗔𝗬 𝗖𝗢𝗨𝗟𝗗 𝗕𝗨𝗜𝗟𝗗 𝗙𝗜𝗡𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗜𝗔𝗟 𝗙𝗨𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗘𝗦? 💡

This holiday, we were reminded of something powerful: 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗿𝗲𝗻 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻 𝗯𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗺𝗲𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆.

Through our Talent Detection Program, children stepped into the world of financial literacy, turning four everyday concepts into an exciting learning experience: 𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗡𝗜𝗡𝗚. 𝗦𝗣𝗘𝗡𝗗𝗜𝗡𝗚. 𝗦𝗔𝗩𝗜𝗡𝗚. 𝗕𝗢𝗥𝗥𝗢𝗪𝗜𝗡𝗚.

With physical cash and specially designed educational banknotes, they explored how money works, made choices, played, questioned, and discovered the foundations of responsible financial decision-making.

Because financial confidence does not begin with a bank account. It begins with a child who understands the value of every choice.
We are proud to bring learning beyond the classroom and into experiences that children can see, touch, and remember.

Our heartfelt appreciation to Koenig & Bauer Banknote Solutions and Aflatoun International for helping bring this innovative learning experience to life.
And this is only the beginning.

From holiday play to school-wide learning, we are investing in a generation that will know not only how to earn, but how to make money work for their future.

𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗧𝗛 𝗘𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗢𝗠𝗜𝗖 𝗘𝗠𝗣𝗢𝗪𝗘𝗥𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗧 𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗚𝗥𝗔𝗠: 𝗠𝗲𝗲𝘁 𝗢𝘂𝗿 𝟰𝘁𝗵 𝗖𝗼𝗵𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗙𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗿𝘀.

For many young people, financial barriers can interrupt education, but they should never silence ambition.

We are proud to welcome the fourth cohort of young people under our 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵 𝗘𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗰 𝗘𝗺𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺, who have now begun their journey at a Leadership Academy, an essential foundation before transitioning into the TVET courses they have personally chosen to pursue.

For many of these young people, completing secondary school or continuing their education was interrupted by financial hardship. But at Hope of Family, we believe that interrupted opportunities should never mean interrupted dreams.

Through this program, young people are being given a renewed opportunity to build practical skills in fields of their choice, develop leadership and confidence, and prepare for a future where they can create sustainable income and opportunities within their own communities.

In less than a year, these young people will return equipped not only with technical skills, but with the ambition, resilience, and entrepreneurial mindset needed to begin their own income-generating ventures.

This is more than skills training. It is a second chance. A pathway to dignity. And an investment in the next generation of community leaders and entrepreneurs.

To our 4th cohort: your journey has begun. Dream boldly. Learn deeply. Lead courageously. The future is waiting for you.

𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁, 𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗮𝘀 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗹 𝗳𝘂𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗴𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗱𝗲𝗲𝗽𝗲𝗿.

Last month, we had the privilege of welcoming fellow Segal Family Foundation partners, the Executive Directors of Dream Village Rwanda and Health Alert Organization, to Hope of Family for a meaningful study visit.

Beyond introductions, it was an exchange of ideas, experiences, challenges, and possibilities, rooted in a shared belief that lasting change is built with communities, not simply for them.

We were proud to open our doors and share the work behind our impact: from our approach to family resilience and children’s development to the people who give purpose to every intervention. Most importantly, our guests had the opportunity to meet the true drivers of change: OUR COMMUNITY IN THE FIELD.

These moments remind us that the strongest movements are built through connection, learning, and collective action.

We are deeply grateful to Segal Family Foundation for creating spaces that connect grassroots leaders, strengthen peer learning, and turn partnerships into a powerful ecosystem for change.

Different organizations. Shared purpose. Greater possibilities.
