Story
*Our family has been so moved by the work being done at Hope Haven Rwanda that we will personally be matching all donations—doubling the impact of every gift given.**
Visiting Hope Haven Rwanda was profoundly moving for me. I expected to witness poverty and hardship—and yes, that exists—but what overwhelmed me most was the joy, the gratitude, the resilience. Watching these children sing, learn, and thrive in an environment filled with love and structure brought me to tears. Meeting the dedicated staff and witnessing how deeply they care for each student made it clear: this is God's work in action. Hope Haven doesn’t just change lives—it changes entire futures.
God has miraculously grown Hope Haven Rwanda from humble beginnings—classes once gathered under a tree—into a vibrant, modern school campus that is now transforming the entire community. This isn’t just a school; it’s a living testament to how education, faith, and compassion can reshape lives. Physically, you can see the transformation in the beautiful campus and infrastructure. Mentally, students are being empowered with knowledge and confidence. Spiritually, families are being renewed with hope and purpose.
What makes Hope Haven so uniquely powerful is that it doesn't stop with the child. Each student receives two nourishing meals a day, which for many, is life-changing in itself. But the impact extends far beyond the classroom—parents and guardians are being trained, employed, and supported. Families are gaining dignity and sustainable income. It’s a holistic model that lifts the entire household, not just the student.
