Rwanda Children

Rwanda Children We provide shelter, food, medical care, education, and hope to at-risk children in the name of Jesus.

We trust in the power of our God who made all people and we believe that Jesus, God in the flesh, set us an example of hope, mercy, and love for our neighbor. As a result, Rwanda Children seeks to embody and live out the example of love through our presence and through the sharing of our resources with vulnerable and at-risk children in the country of Rwanda. Beginning in 2013, we built our first

children's home in the village of Ntarama, Rwanda - home to our founder, Serge Gasore. This home currently provides for seven children from Ntarama and surrounding communities who have been identified as at-risk or vulnerable by their families or other community members. We are also caring for 14 additional children who became the first residents in two of the 5 new children's homes comprising our Hunter Hanner Community of Hope. Our goal is to ensure all of these children can grow, learn and live free from abuse, extreme poverty or neglect. Rwanda Children is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.

Rwanda Children provides medical insurance to over 3,000 children across Rwanda — many of whom never set foot on our campus.

For just $15, you can cover a child's health insurance for an entire year. Doctor visits, medicines, immunizations, and malaria treatment. Care that can mean the difference between life and death.

For many families in our community, even $15 is simply out of reach. But for you, it might not be.

As we close out this first week of June — give $15 today: rwandachildren.org/shop

Happy Friday from Ntarama!

This week, students carried the harvest from our campus gardens to the kitchen — igitoki, igihaza, corn, greens, and more — working together with full arms and joyful hearts.

Watching them, you see something beyond agriculture.

You see children learning that their work matters. That what they grow with their hands can nourish the people beside them.

That is not a lesson from a textbook. That is a life being shaped.

Thank you for helping make this community — and everything growing within it — possible.

RCCS teacher Monica Birungi placed a gentle hand on Jaydan’s shoulder while he worked on a drawing.

Jaydan is four years old. He loves swimming and dreams of becoming a pilot someday.

In that moment — a hand on a shoulder, a crayon on paper, a teacher close by — something important was happening.

Not a lesson. Not a program. Just a child feeling safe enough to create.

That is what Rwanda Children’s Early Childhood Development program is built on: the belief that children who feel secure learn better, grow stronger, and dream bigger.

When you give to Rwanda Children, you help provide that foundation for children like Jaydan.

Mireille, one of our RCCS teachers, was on her way to class when she noticed Emmy’s shoes were untied.

She was in a hurry. She stopped anyway.

She knelt down to tie his laces, looked up at him — and Emmy, three years old, smiled like she had given him the world.

This is what more than 200 Rwandan staff members do every day at Rwanda Children. Not the dramatic gestures — the small ones. The ones nobody asks for. The ones that quietly tell a child: you matter.

Thank you for making it possible for people like Mireille to keep showing up.

Eustache asked about his sponsor this week.

He wanted to know more about the person who is praying for him.

Eustache is 11 years old and in Primary 5. Right now, somewhere in Ntarama, he is probably practicing basketball and wondering about the person across the world who chose to believe in him.

If you do not yet have a sponsored child, there are still children waiting for someone to know their name, pray for them, and walk alongside them.

Twenty-five children are still waiting.

Today is World Bicycle Day.

In our community, bicycles are more than transportation. They carry students to school, families to work, food to market, and neighbors to one another.

For many across Rwanda, a bicycle is not simply for recreation. It is practical, necessary, and deeply connected to daily life.

This image captures something we see every day in Ntarama — movement, resilience, and the ordinary rhythms of community life.

Happy World Bicycle Day from Rwanda Children.

In Rwanda Children’s Food & Beverage Management program, students are not just learning recipes — they are learning a trade.

This week, they prepared vegetable jardinier and creamy sausage carbonara, plating each dish with care and presenting their work professionally.

Nice, Emelyne, and Elysabeth are already learning the discipline, teamwork, and attention to detail required to succeed in hospitality and business.

They are preparing for more than school. They are preparing for real work, real opportunity, and real futures.

This week, Kenny, Nita, and Abigail spent the morning in the garden before carrying the harvest to the kitchen.

Kenny carried igitoki — green bananas. Abigail balanced an igihaza — a pumpkin — on her head, smiled the whole way.

Kenny wants to be a doctor. Nita wants to be an engineer. Abigail wants to be a professional artist.

This morning, they were farmers. And they were proud of it.

Meet Hero.

He is one year and six months old — and he already gets excited when he sees a soccer ball.

Hero’s family loves him deeply and works hard for him. But reliable nutrition, healthcare, and education are still beyond what they can provide on their own.

He is cheerful. He is curious. He is exploring the world with joy every single day.

We believe in what Hero is becoming. And we are grateful for every partner who makes it possible to walk alongside children like him.

Nailla is seven years old and in Primary 2.

She loves swimming, and when she grows up, she wants to become Rwanda’s Minister of Gender.

But first, as she recently told one of her teachers, she wants to build houses so her family will never be cold.

Seven years old. Already carrying both ambition and love in the same breath.

That is who Rwanda Children is raising.
