Street children in Kigali, Rwanda
From risingabovethestorms.org/street-children ↗We rescue children from the street, rehabilitate them through counseling & nurture them back to school. We do that from a safe environment called the Learning Center, where children gather from around the city of Kigali, Rwanda.
Our staff are certified counselors that work individually with each child & their families (often single parents). Our goal is for them to become emotionally stable and prepared for a trade job (at a minimum).
