Help us Unlock $20k in Matches NOW through Giving Tuesday!

​This Giving Tuesday, your gift can go twice as far!

Starting NOW we are raising $20,000 by the end of the day on December 2nd to support women and families in Rwanda. If we reach our goal, an anonymous donor will contribute $10,000 and Boeing will match another $10,000 — doubling your impact to $40,000!

Together, we can build brighter futures. Give today and help unlock both matches!
How Your Giving Tuesday Gift Will Change Lives in Rwanda:

Every dollar you give this Giving Tuesday will go directly toward transforming lives in the Rugarika community. Together, we can create safety, stability, and opportunity where it’s needed most.

• $19,500 — Safe Housing for Eric and Jacques
  Your support will help build a duplex home for Eric and Jacques, two teenage students who currently have no safe place to live. This will be a GIFTS Rwanda home, providing them with safety, stability, and a supportive environment as they continue their education. Once Erik and Jacques are stable and able to secure their own housing, the home will be used to shelter other children or mothers in need, ensuring it continues to serve and uplift the community for years to come.
  
  • Jacques has endured unimaginable hardship — his father took his mother’s life and is now serving a life sentence. Though the community stepped in to help, Jacques was separated from his siblings and now lives in unsafe conditions, walking hours each day to reach school.
  • Eric lives with his siblings — Liliane, Jeremy, and Vedaste — and their grandparents in extremely difficult conditions. His mother recently passed away from cancer, leaving the children orphaned.

We’re already supporting Eric’s education and providing food for his siblings, but through this campaign, we hope to give both Eric and Jacques what every child deserves — a safe, stable home.

• $3,300 — Food Support and Farming Empowerment
  This portion will provide essential food supplies to Eric, Jean, and Rachel, and milk for baby Peace. It will also help five families begin cultivating their own land, offering immediate hunger relief while building long-term food security.

• $30,000 — Scholarships for 154 Students
  We have two more tuition payments to make this school year — one in January and one in April — to cover scholarships for 154 of the village’s most vulnerable children:
  44 in primary school
  101 in secondary school
  9 in university
  
  Your gifts ensure these students can stay in school and continue pursuing their dreams — including many who have no family support system at all.
  
• $2,300 — Tailoring Training for 25 Young Women
  We’ve already funded $3,100 of this program, with just $2,300 left to complete it. Your generosity will allow 25 young women to finish their tailoring training and receive their certificates and sewing machines — equipping them to earn income, support their families, and serve their community with pride.
  

GIVE TODAY FOR 2X THE IMPACT!

Your gift this Giving Tuesday will change lives — providing safety, education, nourishment, and opportunity for families in Rwanda.

While these combined projects total $55,100, our campaign goal remains $40,000. Reaching that milestone will give us incredible traction to complete every one of these action items by year’s end — and we believe, with your help, we can make it happen.

Together, we can do this.
