Shelter Them’s Mission is to empower vulnerable and underprivileged children in Rwanda, by first ensuring they are integrated in an environment where their basic growth and development needs are met, and by subsequently providing them and their families with the tools and resources they need for these children to have a bright, independent and sustainable future ahead. Shelter Them is not focused on aid. The Organization is instead focused on empowering children with the tools they need to design their own bright future. This approach materializes in our focus on capacity building initiatives, of which our greatest ambition is to build and run a vocational school in the Bugesera District. We are working hard to get to this ultimate goal, but given the cost of the project and while we fund raise for it, we are actively working on other, smaller capacity building pilot initiatives that will push the organization through the learning curve and make it more proficient in delivering effective education programs.
