Nursery

We built 2 new classrooms

Our abundance helps in their deficit!

When a local pastor, Rafiki, established Nursery, around 200 kids applied during the first year and the next year another 100 children were interested, but there was no space for them. That's why we decided to add two new classrooms so that other kids may have a chance to go to school.

In Africa the government is not helping the same way as in Europe. There is no way to get any support for nursery school from government. They only support the primary school. Teachers need to teach volunteerly, kids don't get any food, they need to walk far, sometimes even few kilometres and the quality of toilets can't be compared with our standards.

The building cost around 2400 EUR.

Thanks to all of you who decided to help!

In Rwanda even a small amount means a lot!

Local contact

Pastor Ndagijimana Rafiki comes from a neighboring country Congo. He came to Rwanda after the genocide in 1994, with the desire to help the local people. He has 5 children and lives in Kabadaha village in the Mushishiro sector.

Vojta met him "by accident" in 2014. He invited Vojta to stay with him for two days. Together they bought food and brought it to one widow and some orphans. When we bought a cookie as a thank you for his help, he did not leave it for himself, but he gave it to the passing children. Since then they have been writing regularly and keeping contact over the years.

In a severe drought that affected the whole of Central Africa in 2017, we collected money and sent him financial help, from which he bought food for the poorest people in his region.

In November 2018 we have spent 3 weeks in his house with him and his beautiful family.

We started to build together a bakery and because it is going successfully, we are now planning to help them also with a nursery. He started it but there are more kids willing to join and the capacity of the buildings are not enough so we would like to make it possible for at least other 60 children.
